MEETING OF THE FACULTY BOARD OF THE MEDICAL SCHOOL 
of the 


UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND 


January 7, 1943 


_ A special meeting of the heads and sub-chiefs of clinical and 
_ pre-clinical departments was held in Chemical Hall of the Medical School 
at 3:50 P.M., Thursday, January 7, 1943. 


a Present: Doctors Amberson, Aycock, Brantigan, Clapp, Coblentz, 
Davis, Douglass, Hachtel, William Helfrich, Hundley, Kitlowski, Krantz, 
Looper, O'Rourk, Charles Reifschneider, Sacks, Shipley, Spencer, Sprunt, 

- Uhlenhuth, Voshell, Walton, Wise and Wylie. Dean Patterson presided. 


_ Two-Year Pre-Medical Requirement 


The meeting was called for the special purpose of discussing 
the necessity for making changes in the pre-medical requirements for ad- 
mission to the Medical School for the duration of the war, to conform with 
similar action now being taken by many other medical schools in the United 
States as a result of a recommendation by the Association of American 
Medical Colleges. 


The following motion was offered by Dr. Wylie, seconded by 
Dre Wise, and carried: 


WHEREAS, the Assocation of American Medical Colleges at 
its annual meeting in Louisville, Kentucky, October 28, 1942, 
by unanimous resolution recommended to all the member colleges 
that the period of pre-medical study heretofore required by the 
majority of the medical schools be reduced to two years of 
scholastic or academic study for the duration of the war, or 
during the continuance of a state of national emergency, and 


WHEREAS, such action has also been recommended by the 
Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American 
Medical Association, 


THEREFORE, be it resolved by the Faculty of the School of 
Medicine of the University of Maryland that the period of pre- 
medical study heretofore required for admission to that school 
be reduced to two academic or scholastic years, or their 
equivalent, consisting of not less than 60 semester hours, 
exclusive of physical education and military science, in an 
approved College of Arts and Sciences, in conformity with the 


recommendations of the Association of American Medical- 
Colleges and the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals 
of the American Medical Association, provided that the 
minimum number of semester hours of instruction in the 
prescribed basic subjects for a pre-medical education be 
ineludede Such reductions in admission requirements are to 
continue in force until further notice. 


Dean Patterson outlined the policy to be followed with respect 
to future meetings of the Faculty which fall into three groups or 
categories: - she 


1 - The entire Faculty which will meet at the opening and 
closing of each scholastic sessione 


-2@ + The Faculty Board, composed of the heads of Departments 
and sub-divisionse This group will meet more frequently. 


3 - The Executive Committee, composed of seven senior members 
of the Faculty plus the Dean and Assistant Dean, to be 
called upon to advise the Dean on special occasions or 
in emergencies. 


The Dean spoke of the fact that the Medical School and the 
Hospital were not at present adequately supported by State Funds and that 
the financial condition will never be satisfactory until they are so sup- 
ported. He stated the importance of obtaining a better financial backing 
and indicated that, with the assistance of all of them, he would make 
every effort to secure better appropriations from the Legislature in the 
futures He expressed the opinion that it will take a long time to change 
the situation. The Legislature will need to be thoroughly educated ’ 
concerning the needs of these two important parts of the State University. 


The Dean then spoke of the policy to be followed concerning 
filling of vacancies in the Faculty-e Whenever a vacancy occurs, corres- 
pondence will be initiated by those who may be interested through the head ~ 
of the department in which the vacancy existse When applications have been 
received, those that appear to be the best qualified will be brought to 
the attention of the Dean and he, with the head of the department con- 
cerned, will decide which one or ones should be invited to visit the 
Medical School for a personal interview. When invited, such candidates 
will be scrutinized and conducted through the School, and the Department 
concerned, by the head of that Department. The final recommendation of 
the head of. the department as to the best qualified man will be followed 
by the Dean who, if he is in accord, will tender the one selected a formal 
offer of employment at a stated Salary, etc. In other words a contract 
will be entered into between the Medical School and the individual concerneds _

Dr. Huntington Williams stated that, although he was willing to 
recommend that Walker's mark in Piyblic Health be raised to 75, he preferred 
first to discuss the situation before the Faculty Board. He explained that 
the course in Public Health for fourth year students was very brief and that 
the examination was correspondingly brief. He read the questions of the 
examination together with the student's answers, one answer of which relating 
to the sewerage system in Baltimore, the student had written, "No need to 
mess this up any more". Dr. Williams expressed the view that the student 


Should be given an oral examination, in accordance with previous practices 
in casesof doubt, but stated that of course he would abide by the decision 
of the Faculty. 


After discussion, upon motion made by Dr. Shipley, seconded by 
Dr. Spencer, and unanimously adopted, the Faculty Board decided that Mr. 
Walker should be given an oral examination either by Dr. Williams or 
someone designated by him before being recommended for graduation. It 
was also decided that if Walker's answer to the question on sewage was 
intended to be rude, he would be required to apologize before taking the 
oral examination, and that should he fail to pass the re-examination in 
Public Health he be not graduated.

Recht, John Me Medicine & Physical DiagnoSise The final 
action as to whether or not this student is to

A discussion ensued with respect to the recommendations of the 
Committee to drop from the rolls John M. Rechte Dr. Sprunt stated that the 
student had given a very bad impression in Medicines His papers were | 
incoherent and many words were misspelled. His work has deteriorated recently: 
After further consideration of Mr. Recht's case, it was finally decided that 
Mr. Recht is to be given a careful physical survey by the Medical Department 
in order to determine both his physical and mental capacities and, pending 
the results of such examinations, his future status would be undetermined. 
The Committee was directed to abide by any action that Dr. Sprunt, Head of 
the Department of Medicine, found it necessary to take after a physical 
surveye If Mr. Recht is physically qualified he will then be permitted to 
take re-examinations in the subjects in which he has failed in order to 
determine his future status in the schoole 


Upon motion made by Dr. Hundley, seconded by Dr. Carl L. Davis, 
the Faculty Board voted to carry out the above recanmendations of the 
Advancement Committee as amended with respect to Mr. Rechte 


Dre Wylie stressed the need of consultation between the Advancement 
Committees of the first and second years with respect to the promotion or 
discharge of students before recommending that anyone be dropped. It was 
his view as well as the Dean's that students who advance as far as the third 
and fourth years ordinarily should be expected to graduate except in caseg 
of mental deterioration, or for defects in their character or conduct. 


Failures and Incomplete Work 


The Dean requested information as to the prevailing practice in 
this University in the matter of failures and incompleted worke It was 
explained that all students who failed in any subject are re-examined, and 
if they fail again, they are dropped. Students with sub jects in which 
they have "incompletes” must complete them before the beginning of the 
succeeding semester. No courses are repeated. 


Commencement Exercises 


The Dean announced that only 19 members of the Faculty as yet had 
indicated their intention: to be present at the Commencement exercises on 
Thursday, March 25, 1943. He urged every member of the Faculty to take 
part in the Academic Procession in order to make a creditable showing. The 
faculty owes that effort to the students. He stated that caps and gowms 
-can be secured from A» T. Jones, for $3.00. Dr. Shipley suggested that the 
Heads of the separate departments contact the men in their Departments and 
request them to attend. The Dean concurred in and approved that suggestione 


Hippocratic Oath 


Dr. Shipley recommended that at this Commencement Exercises he be 
permitted to make a brief preliminary statement of the meaning of the Hippo- 
cratic Oath at the time of Hippocrates (5th Century B.C.), and then read it 
to the graduates at the Commencement Exercises, rather than actually to 
administer the Hippocratic Oathe The graduates to be asked only to accept 
the principles stated in the Oathe The Dean concurred in this recommendation 
and directed Dr. Shipley to prepare such a preliminary statement for 
presentation at the Commencement. The Dean invited the attention of the 
Board to a recent memorandum from him concerning the Hippocratic Oath and 
the "“Sponsio Academica". He stated that this subject would be consi dered 
at an early meeting of the Faculty Board.

Upon motion made, duly seconded and unanimously adopted, the 
Faculty Board approved the recommendation of the Committee on Graduation 
that the above-named students, having satisfactorily fulfilled all 
requirements for graduation, be recommended to the President and the Board 
of Regents of the University of Maryland for the Degree of Doctor of 
Medicine, 


Zz. Students who have failed in one course 
The following students have met all requirements for graduation 
with the exception of one failure each in the courses indicated; 


Ruth Workman Baldwin . . . Ophthalmology 
Edward Colson Day ... . Psychistry 
Peter Memula oe “ev = Te! > <6 Ophthalmology 


Dr. Clapp, Professor of Ophthalmology, stated he would raise the 
grade of Mrs. Baldwin to "75". Upon motion made, duly seconded, and 
unanimously adopted, the Faculty Board approved the addition of the name 
of Mrs. Baldwin to the list of students recommended for graduation. 


In the absence of the Professor of Psychiatry, Dr. Clapp moved 
that Mr. Day's grade be raised to 75, and that he be recommended for gradu- 
ation. Motion was seconded by Dr. Hundley, and unanimously adopted by the 
Faculty Board. Discussion ensued concerning Mr. Day. Dr. Spencer stated 
that, having been informed of a personal indebtedness of Mr. Day to a 
private firm, he had consulted the Dean with reference to Mr. Day's status 
for graduation, and had been instructed by the Dean that Mr. Day was not to 
be recommended for graduation until this obligation had been met. The 
Faculty Board coneurred in the Dean's ruling, whereupon the original 
motion was amended to read that Day, having met all academic requirements 
for graduation, he be recommended for graduation, provided he meet his 


personal obligation, which Day had promised to meet. The Chairman instructed 


Dr. Spencer to see that Day complied with this requirement. 


——— =

Dr. Clapp, Professor of Ophthalmoloey, agreed to raise the merk 
of Mr. Mamula to 5", and moved that his name be added to the list recommended 
for graduation. Motion was seconded and adopted by Faculty Board. 


3. Students who have failed in two courses. 


The following student has met all requirements for graduation with 
the exception of two failures in the courses indicated: 


Richard Mitchell Garrett . .. Gynecology and Ophthelmology 


Dr. Clapp, Professor of Ophthalmology, agreed to reise Mr. Garrett's 
Mark to "75", Dr. Hundley, Professor of Gynecology, discussed Mr. Garrett's grade 
of%7". He stated that his work had been very poor, and that he had had great 
difficulty in getting him to turn in one (1) case report which is required. 
Dr. Shipley reviewed Mr. Garrett's grades and class standing for the first 
three years in the Medical School, which revealed that he had always been in 
the lower third of his class, but had never had to take a re-examinetion. 
His grade in gynecology for the third year was "85". Dr. Hundley, therefore, 
agreed to raise Mr. Garrett's mark to"75", Upon motion made by Dr. Spencer, 
seconded by Dr. Hundley, and unanimously adopted, the Board approved the 
addition of Mr. Garrett's name to the list recommended for graduation. 


4, Recipient of the Gold Medal.

average for her four academic years (90.37), is recommended by the Committee on

Board approved the recommendation of the Committee on Graduation that 

Mrs. Lillien Feykert Bennett be awarded the University Prize Gold Medal.

noted that an error had been made in the average for Mr. Wm. =, McGrath, Jr., 
recorded above as the recipient of the third Certificate of Honor, Further 

investigation confirmed the fact that Mr. McGrath was incorrectly reported as 
having an average of 89.84. His average was 87.54. At a conference between 
Dr. Shipley, Dr. Spencer and Dr. Hachtel, the name of Mr. McGrath was eliminated, 
and the name of Mr. Edgar Thornton Pfeil, with a general average of 89.06, was 

added to the list as the recipient of the Fifth Certificate of Honor.

Students Passed with Warning 


A discussion arose as to the policy of advancing students with 
a Warning, which is not followed up in the ensuing year to see if any improvement 
has taken place. It has occurred that the same student is warned in two consecu- 
tive years with no action taken. Dr. Wylie stated that consideration should be 
given to set up a definite standard which the students would be expected to meet. 
This matter will be discussed at a later meeting.

MEETINGS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE 
‘ FACULTY OF MEDICINE 


January 13, 1944 
January 17, 1944 


Present: (January 13, 1944): Doctors Douglass, Hachtel, Spencer, Sprunt, 
Shipley and Wylie 


Present: (January 17, 1944): Doctors Hachtel, Spencer, Hundley, Sprunt, 
Shipley and Wylie 


The Executive Committee met on the above dates to consider the proposal 
concerning the renting of space in the Bressler Building to the Davison 
Chemical Corporation. 


At the second meeting, it appeared to the members that a number of 
people had been in communication with Mr. Chester F. Hockley, President, 
Davison Chemical Corporation, and out of this there arose a little confusion 
as to exactly what the Davison Chemical Corporation's proposal was. 
Accordingly, in order to secure definite and direct informetion, Dr. Wylie 
sent a letter to Mr. Hockley on January 18, 1944, copy of which is appended, 
and received a reply on January 20, 1944, copy appended. Since the facilities 
requested in Mr. Hockley's letter of January 20th coincided with the 
understanding of the Committee when it met on January 17th, the Committee 
made the following recommendation: 


The Executive Committee of the Faculty 
recommends to the Dean and through him to the President 
that it approves of the renting of the space in the 
Bressler Building, particularly since it is associated 
with the promotion of the war effort, but feels that 
the details should be worked out by the President on 
authority of Dean Patterson.

Baltimore 1, Maryland 


Dear Mr. Hockley: 


A short time ago, Dr. John C. Krantz, Jr., Professor of Pharmacology 
of our School of Medicine, sent me the enclosed letter. 


The School of Medicine is interested in any research project which is 
planned in support of the war effort. However, before determining on a course 
of aetion, it is thought advisable that you be apprised of the contents of 
Dr. Krantz letter, and that the Dean's Office of the School should secure more 
complete and direct information in connection with the proposed use of the fac- 
ilities and of the space involved in the Bressler Building. Some of the points 
on which the Dean's Office would like more information are these: 


1. How many months would the space indicated be needed by your 
Corporation? 

2. How much rent is offered per month for the space and facilities? 

5. What fire and occupational hazards are involved, if any? 

4. Would there be released any fumes or gases of an obnoxious 
or poisonous character? 

5. To what extent would the use of the elevators be involved 
for passenger and freight service? 

6. Would it become necessary to install heavy machinery which 
would be likely to cause undue stresses on the floors 
and building supports? 

7. Would the facilities be used at night? 

8. Is the work of such a secret nature that the fifth floor would 
have to be closed to the public? 


Some of the reasons which prompt these questions will become apparent 
when it is explained that all floors, including the fifth and sixth, contain 
classrooms and laboratories to which students must have access, In addition, 
there is an animal room on the sixth floor in which are kept experimental 
animals which could be harmed by poisonous gases. 


The Dean's Office is aware that a number of conversations have been 
held with you by officials of the University concerning this project. However 
it would be appreciated if you will comment on the points in question, and 
address an official application to Dean Robert U. Patterson for the use of the 
facilities available. On receipt of your reply, the Executive Committee will 
be glad to make prompt recommendations to Dean Patterson and through him to 
Dr. H. C. Byrd, President of the University of Maryland. 


Very sincerely yours, 


(Signed) H. Boyd Wylie, M. D.

Office of the President January 20, 1944 


Dr. H. Boyd wylie, Assistant Dean, 
School of Medicine 

University of Maryland, 

Baltimore, Maryland 


Dear Dr. Wylie: 


In response to the suggestion made in your letter of 
January 18th relating to our desire to utilize certain laboratories on 
the fifth floor and a part of a vacant room on the sixth floor of the 
Bressler Building, I am making the following replies to the questions 
raised in your letter: 


1. How many months would the space indicated be needed by your 
Corporation? 


The Corporation needs space to augment our present laboratory 
facilities until WPB approves a projected building and we are able to 
complete same. At the minimuy it appears that we will require space for 
a period of at least six months, and perhaps for a year or even longer. 
Should we occupy space in the Bressler Building, our tenancy, after a 
period of six months from the date of first use, could be at your sole 
discretion. 


2, How much rent is offered per month for the space and facilities? 


We have been informed that the Bressler facilities which might 
become availeble are vacant rooms and laboratories Nos. 503, 505, 506, 
522, 513, 512 and 521. Aside from these rooms, which total about 1475 
sq. ft. area, we understand there is a space approximately 40 x 20: ft. 
on the sixth floor, which might be utilized for office work. This is 
now used as storage space, but could be easily vacated, as we understand 
it. 


If we should be permitted to use this sixth floor space, we would 
install temporary office partitions therein. 


I believe that a "meeting of the minds” should be had in respect 
to a fair monthly rental. Our own approach to the subject is that we 
feel that your institution should be properly compensated in view of all 
the circumstances. We believe that you would, in turn, not wish to 
enter into any kind of agreement of this character were it not for the war 
situation and the indirect contribution which you can make in this direction. 


j i i f gas, water 
If utilities, including light and "normal" amounts 0 : : 
electricity and eveau are included, we have felt that, based on the highest 
current rates for office space in the city, a monthly rental at the rate of | 
#8,000.00 per year would be proper for this space of approximately 1875 sq. ft. 


3. What fire and occupational hazards are involved, if any? 


No unusual fire or occupational hazards would be involved in the work 
carried out in the laboratory quarters or office space. 


4. Would there be released any fumes or gasses of an obnoxious or 
poisonous character? 


We do not anticipate that obnoxious or poison fumes or gases would be 
evolved in the work. If from time to time, as happens in normal chemical 
work, obnoxious gases were encountered, we should arrange to control them ! 
in accordance with the best laboratory practice for our own as well as others’ 
benefit. Experimental animals kept on the sixth floor would certainly be =| 
subjected to no hazards due to fumes and the like. I believe there need be 


no concern on this point. 


5. To what extent would the use of the elevators be involved for 
passenger and freight service? 


The major use of freight service would be during the "moving in" period. 
Thereafter, usage would only be that expected in supplying normally active 
chemical laboratories. We would hope to-use the passenger elevator in the 
normal way, and we might be willing to contribute the services of our janitor 
: during rush hours for this elevator service. In this event, the remainder 
; of the building could profit thereby. 


6. Would it become necessary to install heavy machinery which 
would be likely to cause undue stresses on the floors and 
building supports? ‘ 


We would abide by the usual building laws in respect to heavy machinery, 
and floor loads. As a matter of fact, we do not anticipate any heavy 
machinery will be used. But in the event we should desire to install such 
later, we would, of course, expect to obtain your approval and that of 
building authorities. 


7. Would the facilities be used at night ? 


Normally the facilities would not be used at night. In rare events, 
some evening work might be done, provided you are agreeable thereto.. 


8. Is the work of such a secret nature that the fifth floor would 
have to be closed to the public? 


It would not be necessary to close the fifth floor to the public, 
though we would expect that a reasonable degree of privacy would be 
Maintained. "Keep Out" signs would only be applied to doors in the event-- 
which we think unlikely--that students or others persisted in attempting 
to satisfy other then normal curiosity. 


In the event of our occupying these quarters, it is agreed 
to restore them to their original condition when we vacate. 


I hope that you and your associates will be able to act 
favorably on our request to utilize the aveilable quarters under the 
conditions mentioned herein, or under alternate conditions which may 
better meet your ideas in respect to our use of these vacant quarters. 
We plan to use these facilities for purposes which, in a large part, are 
directly contributing to the War Effort. 

I am enclosing two additional copies of this letter for any 
purpose for which you may need them in your organization. 


Very truly yours,

MEETING OF THE FACULTY BOARD OF THs MEDICAL SCHOOL 
of the 
UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND 


March Boy 1944 -- 4 P.M. 
Chemical Hall 


Hachtel, Hutchins, Joslin, Krantz, Looper, Sacks, Shipley, Spencer, 
Sprunt, Toulson, Williams, Wolff, Wylie. Dean Patterson presided. 


It was moved and duly seconded that the School of Medicine adopt the 
oath known as the 'Sponsio Academica” as being a more modern and acceptable 
oath for the use of students who graduate from this Medical School hereafter, 
rather than the old Pagan Hippocratic oath. The motion was passed 


unanimously. 


The members of the Faculty were reminded of the importance of seeing 
that hours of instruction which they give to students terminate a sufficient 
time before the end of each hour to enable the students to proceed to 
the next lecture. There have been some complaints by some members of the 
Faculty that students were delayed unduly by other instructors. 


The Dean invited the attention of the members of the Board to the 
procedure to be followed for appointment to, or relief from, membership 
on the Faculty of the Medical School, or the Visiting Staff of the 
University Hospital, issued from his office on August 2, 1943. 


It was moved and duly seconded that the Faculty go on record as 
being heartily in favor of a new psychiatric hospital or unit to be 
provided for the State of Maryland in the City of Baltimore as outlined 
in the following Resolution, which was passed unanimously: 


Whereas - There is to be presented to the State Planning Commission 
for postwar projects a plan for a State psychopathic hospital to be 
located in the City of Baltimore, and 


_ Whereas - It is suggested that this psychopathic hospital be a 
unit in close association, physically and functionally, with the University 
Hospital and Medical School, a feature thet is approved by the Mental 
Hygiene Society of Maryland, by the State Commissioner of Mental Hygiene, 
by psychiatrists of the City and by the Baltimore City Medical Society 


Be It Resolved - 


First - That the Faculty of Medicine of the University 

: a of Maryland approves the plan in general and 
recommends that the plan be placed in Class A 
Urgent of the Six Year Capital Improvement Program 
for the State of Maryland: 


Second - That the Faculty of Medicine recognizes the advantages 
to the Psychopathic Hospital of a close association 
with the University Hospital and Medical School and 


6. 


appreciates further that such a psychiatric unit 
would be a splendid asset to the Medical School and 
University Hospital in the temporary care of 
psychiatric patients before their ultimate disposi- 
tion, in the teaching of psychiatry to medical 
students and resident staff and in the opportunities 
for clinical research and - 


Third - That when the necessary building is constructed and 
funds provided for its operation, the Faculty of 
Medicine of this School and the Staff of the Hospital 
will cooperate in the direction and operation of such 
a unit and 


Fourth - That it is the opinion of this Faculty that it would 
be well that the Director of such a psychiatric unit 
be the Professor of Psychiatry in the Faculty of 
this School and 


Fifth - Theat a copy of these resolutions be sent to the Mental 
Hygiene Society of Maryland, and a copy to the 
Chairmen of the Maryland State Planning Commission, 
Mr. Abel Wolman, 30] latrobe Hall, Johns Hopkins 
University, Baltimore, Md. 


It was moved and seconded that a Committee be appointed by the Dean 
to study the adequacy of salaries paid to members of the Faculty in the 
first two or preclinical years of the Medical School course, the report 
to be made to the Dean who will then bring the matter before the Faculty 
Board for consideration, and such action as may properly be indicated. 


The Dean advised the Faculty Board that he would endeavor not to call 
them too frequently for meetings; that meetings would be called when he 
had problems concerning which he felt ‘ needed the consideration and advice 
of the Faculty; that meetings would be called by the Dean whenever enough 
suggestions were made to the Dean in writing that indicated the need for 
consideration by the Faculty. In other words whenever sufficient agenda 
is collected to justify calling a meeting, such a meeting will be held. 
He stated thet it was his desire to conserve the time of the members of the 
Faculty in every way possible during these difficult days of acceleration 
of the course of study in the Medical School, and the high pressure of 
professional work of the clinical members of the Faculty.

MEETING OF THE EXECUTIVE MEETING OF THE 
| FACULTY OF MEDICINE 


April 19, 1944 


A meeting of the Executive Committee of the Faculty was held in 
the Dean's Office on April 19, 1944 at 4:00 P.M. to consider the emergency 
arising out of the order of the Selective Service of April 11, eliminating 
occupational deferment of premedical students after June 30, 1944, 


Present: Dean Patterson, Assistant Dean Wylie, Doctors Shipley, Spencer, 
Douglass, C. R. Edwards and Hachtel. 


The reading of the Minutes of the previous meeting was dispensed 
with. 


After some discussion the following decisions were reached; 


(1) Students who shall have completed their premedical training 
in time shall be registered on May 12, 1944 and begin their course in 
biochemistry. 


(2) Students who shall not have finished their premedical work in 
time to register on May 12, may continue at the Colleges they are now . 
attending if the Deans of these Colleges will certify the courses being taken 
are under the supervision of the University of Maryland School of Medicine, 


| (3) When this arrangement cannot be made with the Dean of any 
College, the student or students will have to continue their premedi¢al 
training at the College of Arts and Sciences, University of Marylend, Baltimore. 


(4) Before putting the above plan in force an answer to a letter* 
to be sent to Selective Service Headquarters in Washington, D.C. will be 


awaited.

MEETING OF THE EXECUTIVE MEETING OF THE 
FACULTY OF MEDICINE 


April 24, 1944 


A meeting of the Executive Committee of the Faculty was held in the 
Dean" s Office at 3:00 P.M. on Monday, Avril 24, 1944 to discuss action upon a 
resolution adopted by the Executive Council of the Association of American 

| Medical Colleges on April 1, 1944. 


Present: Dean Patterson, Assistant Dean Wylie, Doctors Shipley, Spencer, 
Douglass, ©. R. HKdwards, and Hachtel. 


Before proceeding to the business of the meeting, Dean Patterson 
explained that action has been held in abeyance on the decision made by the 
Executive Committee at its meeting held April 19th to meet the emergency 
ereated by a change in the orders of Selective Service relative to deferment 
of men between 18 and 26 years of age. This delay was determined upon in 
order to receive a reply to a letter of enquiry sent to General Hershey, 
Director of Selective Service in Washington, D.C., as to action contemplated 
as outlined in the letter to General Hershey would comply with the ruling of 
his office. A statement to that effect has been included in the Minutes of the 
last meeting. 


Dean Patterson then asked the advice of the Executive Committee on 
the action to be taken upon a resolution adopted by the Executive Council 
of the Association of American Medical Colleges, which had requested the vote 
of this Medical School, and which reads as follows: 


"RESOLVED: That the Executive Council recommends to the members of 
the Association that all medical schools which will admit a first yearclass in the 
fall of 194 plan to admit the following first year class in the 
autumn of 1945 and successive first year classes each twelve months 
thereafter, that those schools which will admit a first year class 
in January, 1945, admit their following first year class in the fall 
of 1945 and successive first year classes each twelve months there- 
after, with the understanding that in no instance should the decelera- 
tion drop back the admission of a first year class by more than four 
months and also that all civilian medical students and military 
trainees be continued on the accelerated progrem of instruction in 
order to complete the medical course in thirty-six months.” 


Oe a 


The Executive Committee, upon motion duly proposed and seconded, 
voted "aye" on the resolution.

Honor Students 


The following students in order of scholastic standing (general 
average for four scholastic years) upon motion made, duly seconded and carried, 
were recommended to be awarded honors as follows: 


Gold Medal Recipient: William Carl Ebeling, III, having attained 
the highest general average (91.31) for the 
four academic years 


Honor Certificates: 1. Miles Edward Drake pitiete «ere  TOsoo 
2. Herman James Lambert, Jr. .... 90.09 
SP elerviu Goldstein oss « o «ee «68957 
ZA. "Waourice Feldman, Jr... + 2 2 « « 89.27 
5. Lewis Bradford Thompson .....e 89.25 


The Dr. A. Bradley Dr. Wylie announced that this prize usually awarded 

Gaither Memorial Prize; to the student doing the best work in genito-urinary 
surgery, has not been awarded during the period of 
accelerated instruction. 


After the above actions were taken, there was some discussion. 
Dr. Shipley asked the name and grade of the man next in scholastic standing 
after Mr. Thompson. The Dean stated that it was Mr. Wright with an average 
of 89.24, only 0.01 less than the man who preceded him. Dr. Shipley asked if 
Mr. Wright could not also be awarded an Honor Certificate in view of the fact 
that his general average was almost a tie with that of Mr. Thompson. Dr. Wylie 
‘stated that in the catalogue there is published a statement on Page 05 (September 
1943 Issue) that a Gold Medal and five certificates of honor will be awarded 
"to those six of the first ten highest ranking candidates for graduation who, 
during the four academic years, have exhibited outstanding qualifications for 
the practice of medicine", and until public notice of action to the contrary 
was given in the catalogue of the School, it was his view that only five 
certificates should be awarded. Dr. Shipley then concurred in Dr. Wylie's view, 
but continued the discussion by stating that general averages alone should not ~~ 
be the criteria for selecting honor students; that in the past the practice 
had been to consider character, personality, professional attitude, habits, etc. 
together with the grades for each of the first ten men; that if it was expected 
that the members of the Faculty Board would attend these meetings simply to 
accept and pass on the men selected by the Dean's office as honor students, 
it would mean that such meetings will be poorly attended. Dr. Wylie stated 
that for the past several years honors had been awarded upon the basis of 
the aggregate averages for the four academic years, that if there was anything 
detrimental to any student's case, such a report should have been recorded 
in the Dean's Office. The Dean stated that the selection of honor students 
was of course not being made by the Dean's Office, but on the contrary that 
office simply furnished to the Faculty a compilation or aggregate of all the marks 
based on the four scholastic years' work. The members of the Faculty were 
following a procedure customary in this and other schools. The Dean asked if 
it was the desire of the Faculty Board to void the action previously taken at 
this meeting with respect to awarding of honors. Dr. Shipley moved that the | 
discussion be closed and the previous action be confirmed, which was seconded 
and carried, Dean Patterson stated that the first ten students in scholastic 
standing as stated in the catalogue are always to be considered with respect 
to their professional character, habits, etc. in the selection for honors.

én2 to be considered, 


Deceleration: 
EE 


The Dean reminded the Faculty of the vote taken by the Executive 


f the Faculty Board on April 24, 1944 upon Recommendation No. 1 of 
fis Executive Council of the Association of American Medical Colleges, 


which later was approved by the Faculty Board, That Recommendation was 
understood to mean that deceleration would begin with the admission of a 
freshman class in the Fall of 1945, and continue each year thereafter, 
However, from a letter received from the Secretary of the Association of 
American Medical Colleges that understanding was an error, as the Resolution — 
was meant only to refer to the admission of a new class every fall, which | 
however when matriculated would continue training under the accelerated progra 
The only instructors that would receive benefit in the Faculty would be those 
teaching freshmen. The Dean Stated that he had written to the Chairman of the 
Executive Council of the Association of American Medical Colleges, urging him 
to request the War and Navy Departments to send representatives of their 
medical and educational departments to the next meeting of the Association 
which will be held in Detroit, October 23 to 25, 1944, to discuss this 
subject so that decisions may be reached which may be understood and 
followed by all concerned, 


Future Meetings of Faculty Board 


The Dean announced that a special meeting of the Board will 
be held on October 3, 1944, at 4 P.M., in Chemical Hall, at which time

It was moved and seconded that this report be accepted. The motion 
was carried without dissenting voice. 


The Chairman of the Second Year Committee announced that Pfc. Reisch 
has won the Frederica Gehrmann Scholarship with an average of 93,53 in the 
prescribed subjects for the first two academic years. 


Dr. Wylie suggested that Pfc. Reisch be awarded a Certificate of 
Merit in lieu of the $200.00 to be applied to his tuition which, as a member of 
the A.S.T.P., he cannot accept. The suggestion was approved by the Faculty 
Board. 


In view of the large number of students of the second year class 
reported as having been conditioned in one or more subjects, Dr. Wylie expressed 
a misgiving as to the thoroughness with which the First Year Committee was 
weeding out the weak students. The ensuing discussion brought out the fact 
that a careful analysis of the report of the Second Year Committee did not 
sustain that doubt. 


Report of the Third Year Committee on the Advancement of Students 
Dr. Spencer, Chairman of the Committee, read the report.

The report, on a motion duly seconded, was unanimously approved, 


System of Grading 


Dr. Krantz called attention to the slight excursion between the 
highest and the lowest average grade based on the four years' work of the 

| medical students. On the basis of this he raised the question of the 

| advisability of having a study made of our system of grading. Dean Patterson 
| ©xpressed the opinion that this narrow excursion was, in part, due to dropping 
| the weakest students from the rolls early in their career in the medical 
school, and that it was not unusual in good schools with careful selection of 


students and experienced teachers to find close averages between the highest 
and lowest groups in classes, 


Warning to Weak Students 


Dr. Wylie asked the Faculty Board whether they thought the warning 
now given to weak students was too severe, carrying as it does a threat of 
expulsion unless they show improvement. It was the concensus that the warning 
was too severe, and that it should be modified though making the warning definite. 


Dr. Compton asked the Dean whether his office would present an 
analysis of the records for the first three years of those students who have 


been severely warned, Dean Patterson agreed to bring before the Faculty Board 
such an analysis in the near future.

Report of Committee on Salary Studies - 0. G. Harne, Chairman. 


An abstract of the committee's report in three parts was read by 


Chairman Harne,. 


Part One covered the directions to the committee, and the procedure followed in 
collecting the data. To this end contacts were established with The American 


Medical Association; The Association of University Professors; Association of 


52 


American Medical Colleges, and the U. S. Department of Education. Also, all Med 
Schools in the United States were circularized with a questionnaire, asking fora 
information on - 1. Maximum, Average, and Minimum salaries currently paid to 
Full Professors, Associate and Assistant Professors, and Instructors. 2. A 
statement of policy on tenure for the full time staff. 5. Opportunities for 
supplementing salaries. 4. What, if any, steps have been taken to offset 

the upward trends in living expenses of the staff. 


Part Two covered the material collected. Salaries in State-operated schools 
were found to range from $4,000 to *8,000 for Full Professors. Other ranks were 
paid proportionately less. The average being only slightly above the Minimum 
figures, Average minimum salaries in State schools were #4,700.00, and average 
maximum salaries were $6.180 per year. Tenure for Full, and Associate Pro- 
fessors was reported as permanent in 90 per cent of State schools, and permanent 
for Assistant Professors in 40 per cent of State-operated schools. 

Little was reported in the way of relief for the low salaries received by 
teachers. Five supplements however for which extra salary was received were 
reported, 1. Administrative work. 2. Consultation Privileges. 3. Extra 
teaching. 4. Extra work (outside), and 5, Bonuses. 


Part Three Recommendations. 1. That a Maximum - Minimum salary schedule be 


adopted, which would raise the salary standard of the University of Maryland 


from position 12 to position 4, 2. That a biennial salary increase of 5 
per cent be given to all teachers of the full time staff until the maximum 
salary recommended is reached. 5. That consideration be given to some form 


of salary adjustment to meet the immediate need resulting from our proximity 
to war-time areas, 


Voted - Regular motion by Doctors Davis, Uhlenhuth, that the report - 
be accepted with thanks, and approved, and that a copy be transmitted to the 
President of the University. 


Report of Committee on Reprints - C. J. Carr, Chairman, 
a a eth heen da at sel Made chitnta t 


Dean Patterson presented the report of Chairman Carr. It was found 
that a volume of accumulated reprints, representing the publ teat the 
Staff of the Medical School could be had at from $1.25 to $2.25 per GWolume, de- 
pending upon the type of binding. 


Voted - On motion by Doctors Wylie and Uhlenhuth that the committee's 
report be accepted, and that the plan providing 175 volumes of reprints be bound 
beginning with the year 1945, be adopted, 


Dean Patterson spoke of the fact that he had requested members of 
the Faculty to handle the details of appointing and retiring members from the 
school staff on two occasions. He called attention to his original memorandum

Letter from Dr. Uhlenhuth with reference to binding reprints 


Dr. Uhlenhuth's request for the establishment of a special fund to bind 
reprints of the Staff of the Department of Anatomy was considered. The discussion 
centered around the cost of reprints. Dean Patterson stated that, in accordance 
with the decision of October 19, 1944, the cost of the necessary reprints of

their binding, would be assumed by the School when funds were available. 

Dr. Uhlenhuth then withdrew his request. 


Midyear Examinations =- Fourth Year Class 


The Dean enquired of Dr. Hundley and Dr. Joslin whether, in their opinion, 
they had a sufficient check on the students of the fourth year class to make a 
midyear examination unnecessary. Both replied in the affirmative. Dr. Hundley 
further stated that, due to the division of the class between the University and 
Mercy Hospitals, it would be impracticable to give an examination at midyear 
to the class as a whole. 


Dr. Hundley referred to the lack of interest shown by some of the 
students in the fourth year class, and their apparent assumption of the certainty 
of their graduation. The Dean stated he was deeply concerned in this matter, 
and would support any action the staff might take to prevent the graduation of 


Poor students.

| The grades made by each of the above students in their other 
courses were considered and, as all had been satisfactory, except those of 
Norman E. Zinberg, the following action was taken: 


(1) In the cases of Ayd, Canter, R. F. Davis, Sokolaki and Touchet, on 
motions made by Dr. Clapp, duly seconded, and unanimously adopted, 
their grades in ophthalmology and roentgenology, respectively were 


In the case of Norman E. Zinberg, on motion made by Dr. Shipley, 
seconded by Dr. Peake, and passed with Dr. Figge dissenting (16 aye, 
1 no), it was decided that he should not be graduated with his class. 
The discussion of Zinberg's record brought out the fact that he had 
rather consistently cut classes, including ophthalmology, that his 
work on neurology had been unsatisfactory; that some of his clinical 
duties in the departments of medicine, and of obstetrics, had not 
been performed conscientiously on a number of occasions, 
is now on file from Professor of Obstetrics).

Dean Patterson read a letter from Louis Guy Chelton, dated 
May 15, 1945, asking for reconsideration of his discharge from the Freshman 
Class on May 10, 1945, This appeal was based on the following reason: ; 


Personal and illness in his family interfered with 


efficient study. 


On motion of Dr. Davis, duly seconded, it was unanimously decided 
that Mr. Chelton is to be “eligible for reconsideration for admission" to the 


next freshman class. 


Reporting of Final Marks: 


Dean Patterson once more stressed the necessity for sending in 
promptly to the Dean's Office the final marks of the students of the various 
classes at the end of each semester, 2

Dr. Hachtel, Chairman of the Committee, presented the following report: 
Students Advanced Without Reservations: 


The following students have met all requirements and are recommended 
for advancement: 


Allen Fisher Mitchell 
Anthony Forrer Nachlas 
Beatty Friedman Phillips

In the case of the four following students, no grades in Surgery 


were recorded on the report sent to the Dean's Office on Monday, 25 June, 


1945. On inquiry, Dr. Aycock's secretary, shortly before the meeting 


of the Committee on 26, June 1945, reported that Dr. Aycock could not find 
the examination books of these men. This statement was later confirmed by 
Dr. Aycock. Since the records of these students for the year are otherwise 
good, and inasmuch as no effort was made by Dr. Aycock to get in touch with 
them through the Dean's Office, and as the Committee has no evidence of 
their being absent from the examination in surgery, it is recommended that 
they be given a grade in surgery the equivalent of their general average for 
the other eight subjects taken in the second year. 


Hogan Rasch 
Mattern Sacks 


On a motion, duly seconded, it was voted without dissenting voice, 
to give Hogan, Mattern, Rasch and Sacks each a grade in the Principles of 
Surgery the equivalent of his general average in the other second year 
courseSe

the Faculty Board, by unanimous 


On a motion, duly seconded, 
vote, accepted the report. 


Dr. Spear inquired as to the feasibility of informing 

members of the faculty teaching fourth year students of the failing and 

low grades of the borderline men advanced from the third year. The inquiry 
was later broadened to include giving similar information to the 
appropriate teachers of the third and second year classes concerning border- 
line students advanced from the second and first years, respectively. 

Dr. Spear stated that such information would be of value to teachers in 
aiding and counselling the weaker students. 


Dean Patterson stated that the Dean's Office would, in the 
future, give this information to the appropriate members of the faculty.

Report of Students Warned 


The reading of the minutes of the previous meeting was dispensed with, 
except that attention was called to the agreement to notify department heads _ 
regarding the relative standing of students with border-line records. Dr. Wylie 
reported that he had prepared letters of warning, and would endeavor to provide 
a concise report to the department heads, showing the names of those students 
who had been warned, 


Executive Committee Meeting 


It was reported that the Executive Committee had met on July 11, 1945 
to consider appeals for reconsideration from students who had been dropped from 
the first and second years. The Faculty Board was notified that the status of — 
these students was not changed. 


a em ce me ee ee ee ees 


Dr. Aycock moved and Dr. Uhlenhuth seconded a motion to the effect 
that the Medical School reconvert to the standard medical course beginning 
April 1, 1946 if possible. An amendment was added by Dr. Amberson and accepted, 
that if reconversion were possible, the holidays and periods between semesters © 
be extended to consume some of the free time of the classes involved. The 
motion, as amended, was passed. 


——— SE ee ee es ee 


Dr. Bubert moved that the Admissions Committee be given discretionary 
power to accept students having 60 or more semester-hour credits. This 
privilege is to extend to the freshman class entering in September 1946. The 
motion was seconded by Dr. Wright and passed. 


Anticipated Number of Students for 1946, 


Dr. Amberson asked for a statement on the anticipated number of 
students for the 1946-1947 classes. Dr. Wylie warned that the number of 
bona fida applicants cannot be determined at this time, even though there will — 
probably be hundreds of applications from returning veterans. He stated 
that it was not possible to predict, under present restrictions set up by 
Selective Service System, the number of students in the 1946 entering class.

Report of the Committee on Postwar Planning 


Dean Patterson presented the report of the Committee on Postwar 


Planning. The disucssion of this report showed that the members of the Faculty 


Board were of the opinion that no formal refresher courses could be given. 
However, whenever possible we should accept for further training in the 
University Hospital our own men whose training in the University Hospital 
had been interrupted by service in the Armed Forces. 


On motion by Dr. Sacks, duly seconded, their report was accepted, and 
their recommendation adopted that a committee consisting of nine (9) members 
(three preclinical and six clinical), and a chairman be appointed. The 
committee shall consult and make direct inquiry with the various services 
and departments to determine exactly what graduate and postgraduate courses 
may be offered soon or in the future, and report their recommendations through 
the Dean to the Faculty Board. They shall, if such courses are instituted, 
serve ,the group to whom applications may be referred. Finally, in the case of 
each pplicant they shall obtain the approval of the head of the department

MEETING OF THE FACULTY BOARD OF THE MEDICAL SCHOOL 
of the 
UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND 


November 8, 1945 


A meeting of the Faculty Board was held on Thursday, November 8, 1945, at 
4:00 P.M. in the Board Room of the University Hospital. Dean Patterson presided. 


Present: Doctors Amberson, Bubert, Carr, C. L. Davis, Douglass, Figge, Harne, 
Joslin, Kilby, Krantz, McAlpine, Peake, Reese, Reifschneider, Robinson, 
Sacks, Schmidt, Shipley, Smith, Sprunt, Toulson, Uhlenhuth, Wise, Wylie 
and Hachtel. 


The reading of the minutes of the previous meeting was dispensed with. 


ete eee eee ee eS ee ee 


Dean Patterson reported that the meeting of the Association of American 
Medical Colleges held in Pittsburgh, Pa., October 29 - 31, 1945, inclusive was, 
due to the number of members of the faculty of various medical schools present, 
the largest he had attended, He again urged attendance at these meetings by 
members of the faculty of this School of Medicine. 


The Dean stated that the Association, without objection by Selective 
Service or the Procurement and Assignment Service, acted favorably on the dis- 
continuance of the present program (9-9-9 months) of training residents and 
assistant residents, and interns. The Association also voted to end the accelerated 
program of teaching medical students as soon as possible, The Dean explained that 
the second and third year classes could be discontinued in March, and the first 
year class in May 1946 upon sixty days advance notice to the War Department, The 
Dean further stated that Selective Service would continue deferments of civilian 
students already in medical school during their medical training, provided that 
they were not given more than ninety days vacation at any one time. 


Dean Patterson also stated that in a formal paper and with discussion it 
was recommended to the Association that the academic year be increased up to 356 
weeks, and later to 40 weeks when feasible. It was also the general opinion that 
it was undesirable to give short courses in the specialties. Such courses 
should be incorporated in the teaching of the proper major departments. The 
Association also felt that there should be better liaison between the basic science 
courses and the clinical teaching; for example, in diabetes - a member of the 
Department of Biochemistry should present the biochemical aspects of such cases 
with the clinician or instructor giving such a lecture or clinical demonstration. 


Dr. Wylie suggested that on return to the normal program of four calendar 
years, the medical school adopt an academic year of thirty-six weeks. For the 
first year, he suggested two different plans: In one, the first semest®% the course 
to last nineteen weeks, and the second seventeen; in the other plan, each semester 
would be of eighteen weeks' duration. In all other years, the two semesters should 
.be eighteen weeks each. On the motion of Dr. Shipley, duly seconded, it was voted 


to adopt two eighteen-week semesters for all classes after the present 
scholastic year. 


Dr. Wylie also explained that, to conform to the regulations of 
Selective Service, it will be necessary to keep the present second and 
third year classes busy from the 16 March to 14 June, 1946. He suggested 
that they might be given training in dispensaries. This met with the 
approval of Doctors Shipley, Sprunt and Douglass. Also the first year 
class must have its course extended to 14. June, 1946. No objection was 
offered to this proposal. Under the program suggested, the next school 
year will extend from 3 September 1946 to 14 June, 1947. 


Classification of Syphilology and Dermatology 


In the absence of Dr. Robinson, who had broached the subject in a 
letter to Mr. Sayles, Assistant Superintendent, University Hospital, no 
action was taken on the question of classifying Dermatology as a specialty 
in the Department of Surgery, and Syphilology as one in the Department of 
Medicine. Dr. Sprunt and the Dean felt that these both belong in the 
Department of Medicine. 


ee I ed 


Dr. Wylie explained that under the present system a student may 
fail in any of the following subjects: Pathology, Medicine, Neurology, 
Surgery, Bacteriology and Immunology, and Surgical Anatomy - and still 
be eligible for certification for partial State Board or National Board 
examinations. He therefore suggested the following rule be adopted: No 
student to be certified for partial State Board or National Board examina- 
tion who has failed to pass in all prescribed courses at the final examina- 
tions of the sophomore year. Such a rule, he stated, would obviate the 
occurrence of the embarrassing situation in which a student might pass the 
subjects he took before the State Board, but still be required to withdraw 
from the Medical School because of failures in a number of second year 
subjects, distinct from those in which he was to be examined by the State 
Board of Medical Examiners. 


It was the concensus of opinion that this was too drastic a rule, 
Dr. Amberson moved that certification for partial State Board or National 
Board examinations should depend on the action of the appropriate Advance- 
ment Committee and that, if the Advancement Committee recommend reexamina- 
tion in a subject other than the essential ones, the student be certified 
even though the reexamination has not yet been given. This motion,’ duly 
seconded, was carried, 


Sabbatical Year 


Dean Patterson stated that the Board of Regents has adopted rules 
governing the granting of Sabbatical leave years to teachers of the. 
University of Maryland, and that he will have a copy of this to present 
to the Faculty Board at their next meeting.

Mr. Harne summarized the report of the Committee on Grades and 
Grading and Curricular Studies. He expressed his appreciation to-members 
of the Faculty Board, .certain members of the Faculty of the University of 
Maryland, and certain members of the student body, for assistance in 
collecting data and for free discussion. He also acknowledged the courtesy 
and assistance of the Deans of various medical schools visited by sub- 

| committees of the large committee since its formation. 


From the Committee's study of different systems of grading and 
averaging grades, they conclude: 


That our method of averaging grades can be simplified and 
improved, 


That the point system should be given a trial simultaneously 
and compared with the results of the weighted average. 


That a rule to insure uniformity and fairness in grading 
should be adopted. 


A. To improve and simplify the methods used to average students' grades, 
the Committee have recommended: except for the Departments of Medicine and Surgery, 


1. 


26 


36 


Se 


1. 


2. 


That each department (submit one grade for each student, which 
shall be the average for all courses taught by the department in any 


‘one year. 


That the departments of Medicine and Surgery shall submit two 
grades for each student: one to represent the grade in the 
Principles and Practice of Medicine or Surgery, as the case 

may be; the other to represent the average in either the medical 
and surgical specialties. This latter, like all other grades, 
shall be weighted according to the number of hours listed for 
the courses in these specialties. 


The grades submitted by each department or course shall be 
assigned a weight according to the method described. 


The average grade for each student shall be computed for each 
year by multiplying the numerical grade by the corresponding 
weight number for that year. 


The final average of a student shall be the average of the 
four yearly averages. 


This sytem of grading was explained and exemplified by Dr. Figge. 


B. It is recommended that records of the application of the point system 
outlined later in the report be kept for sometime to determine whether this 
system of ranking students would: 


Facilitate the differentiation and selection of honor students 


Eliminate students who consistently do poor work. They would 
be dropped as the result of the accumulation of uncompensated 


deficiency points. 


The working of the point system was also discussed by Dr. Figge. 
It was suggested that the comparison of the two systems (point and weighted 
averages) be carried out for a period of two or three years. 


C. This section of the report recommends that: 


1. The present committee be empowered to review the operation of 
the point system and advise as to its adoption as a permanent 


ranking system. 


2. The members of the first and second year staffs of professorial | 
rank shall be appointed to the committee on advancement for 
the first two years, 


5. In addition an Advancement Committee shall be formed of the 
third and fourth year teachers of professorial rank. This 
committee may invite members of the Advancement Committee 
of the first and second years to take part in making decisions, 


4. In view of the attitude of the student body the Committee 
regretfully recommend that no honor system be adopted at 
this time. 


The report also presents a number of rules to govern advancement, dismissal, 
and honors. 


In the second part of the report the Committee, curricular studies 
are described. As a result of these they recommend: 


1. The establishment of a department of anesthesiology. 


2. The resumption of short courses on Ethics of the Practice of 
Medicine at the bedside and History of Medicine after the 
school goes back on its regular schedule. 


5. The addition of a course in Medical Economics with special 
reference to Hospital Management, 


4. That whenever possible these short courses be given without 
increasing the number of contact hours allotted to the 
respective departments. 


On motion of Dr. Douglass, duly seconded, it was voted to lay the 
report on the table until the next meeting. Dean Patterson announced that 
mimeograph copies of the report would be made and sent to each member of the 
Faculty Board to read and consider before the next regular meeting of that 
Board. 


Faculty Board a 


It was suggested that Associate, and all full time Assistant Professors 
be added to the Faculty Board, On motion, duly seconded, this was adopted.

Report of Committee on Graduate and Postgraduate Courses - Dr. H. M. Bubert, 
Chairman. 

Details of course "set-ups" were discussed at length. The following 
action was taken: 


Motion: Dr. Bubert - seconded by Dr. Shipley. That the Postgraduate 
Training Committee cooperate with Department heads in working out details of 
postgraduate refresher courses to be offered, for final approval by the Dean,

Dr. Figge acts as committee moderator for the discussion. 


It was moved and carried: 


1. To add item A-6 to Part I of the report. This provides direction 
for the correction of examination papers, and is attached to the 
report. 


2. To adopt for trial, as provided therein, Part I of the report. 


Dr. Wylie called attention to the need of adopting grades to indicate 
whether a student is eligible to a re-examination or must be considered sels, 
He suggested the use of "70" to indicate eligibility to re-examination, and "60 
to note a failure, and pointed out how these clear-cut grades will assist 
advancent committees and the Dean's Office in the evaluation of students’ 
Scholastic standing. No action was taken. 


89 


Dr. Wylie also called attention to the appointment by the Dean of 
the two advancement committees required in Part I, Section C, paragraphs 
2 and 3 of the Grade and Gurriculum Gommittee Report. He emphasized the 
desirability of the overlapping representation of committees passing on 
the advancement of students of the first two years and the last two years,

MEETING OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE 


FACULTY OF MEDICINE 


January 16, 1946 


A meeting of the Executive Committee of the Faculty of the School of 
Medicine was held on Wednesday, 16 January, 1946 at 12:30 P.M. in the Dean's 
Office. Dean Patterson presided, 


Present; Doctors Douglass, Bdwards, Hundley, Spencer, Sprunt, Wylie and 
Hachtel. Mr. 0. G. Harne was present on special invitation of 
Dean Patterson in order to furnish certain information, 


Investiture with Doctor's Hoods 


Dean Patterson stated the Fourth Year Class has requested that they 
be invested with the Doctor's hood at the Commencement exercises, During 
_ the discussion Mr. Harne informed the Committee that at a previous rehearsal 
he had determined that investiture with hoods would add twenty minutes to 
the length of the Commencement Exercises. It was then decided unanimously 
to accede to this request, 


Absenteeism from Classes by Members of the Fourth Year Class 
ea OEE LASS 


Dr. Hundley complained of the excessive number of fourth year students 
absent from his clinics, particularly the one scheduled between 8:30 A.M. and 
10 A.M. on Tuesdays, and explained that this, according to the statements of 
the students, was due to the necessity of their working in the Department of 
Obstetrics, In the course of the discussion, Dr. Douglass stated the new plan 
inaugurated in October 1944, under which the students were to be assigned by the 
Head of the Department of Obstetrics to serve in the Obstetrical Clinic of the 
Outpatient Department for one day every three weeks throughout the year, had 
proved to be unworkable. He had, therefore, returned to the former plan of 
assigning the students for periods of five weeks. Dr. Douglass also stated that 
it would be unnecessary for any of these students to absent themselves from 
any other clinic or class, except to attend a patient in labour. It was agreed 
that this arrangement would be satisfactory. Dr. Douglass stated that he 
regretted that he had. changed back to the previous scheme without consultation 

with the Dean before doing so. The Dean stated that he would announce the change, 
and inform all concerned of the future requirements with respect to attendance 
at instruction periods, 


Status of Students on the Inactive List of the Army and Navy 
It was decided not to take up with the War and Navy Departments the 


question of giving to men on the inactive reserve list extra training in the 
clinical departments of the Medical School for the period from April to June 1946,

On motion, duly seconded, it was decided to recommend to the President and 


Board of Regents of the University that these students be granted the degree 
of Doctor of Medicine on 22 March, 1946, 


The following members of the fourth year class failed in the courses 
indicated:

G. W. Fisher ( Orthopaedics ( 60 

( Roentgenology ( 70 
Je A. Mitchell Orthopedics 62 
Lois I. Platt Neurology 70 


In view of the records of Eavey and Fischer in other courses, Dr. Kilby 
raised their grades in Roentgenology to 75. Dr. Spear, in a conversation 
over the telephone, agreed to raise the grade of Lois I. Platt in Neurology to 
75. In the absence of Dr. Voshell, the Faculty Board, on motion duly seconded, 
voted to raise the grade of J. A. Mitchell in Orthopaedics to 75. 


It was then decided to recommend to the President and Board of Regents 
of the University that J. L. Eavey, J. S. Fischer, J. A. Mitchell and L. I. Platt 
be granted the degree of Doctor of Medicine on 22 March, 1946. 


In the case of R. E. Bauer, it was voted to require him to take an 
oral re-examination in Gynecology given by the Professor of Gynecology, on 
Saturday, 16 March. Should he pass, it shall be recommended to the President 
and Board of Regents of the University that he be granted the degree of Doctor 
of Medicine on 22 March, 1946, He shall, however, not be considered for a 
Certificate of Honor, on account of failure in the examination in gynecology. 


On account of his failures in Orthopaedics and Roentgenology, 
and his poor scholastic record, it was decided that G. W. Fisher be required (1) 
to repeat the fourth year, (2) to make an average of 80 in order to be graduated. 


The minutes of the meeting of the Executive Committee which had been 
held at 12:30 P.M. on 15, March were read, and their recommendations approved 
with the amendment that R. E. Bauer should not be considered for a Certificate 
of Honor. As the result of this amendment, the name of Sidney G. Clyman was 
added to the honor list.

Norman Zinberg

Dean Patterson stated that Norman Zinberg who had failed to 
be graduated with his class on 15 June, 1945 had requested that he be 
allowed to repeat the fourth year. The Dean also stated that at the 
time he had notified Mr. Zinberg he could repeat the fourth year, 
provided that the military authorities were willing for him to do so, 
The recommendation of the Executive Committee made at a meeting held 
at 12:30 P.M. on 15 March, 1946, that Mr. Zinberg shall not be permitted 
to repeat the year,was presented to the Faculty. 


A motion was made by Dr. Robinson, seconded by Dr. Davis, that 
Zinberg be allowed to repeat the fourth year. 


During the discussion of this motion, Dean Patterson read a letter 
from Dr. Douglass, dated 16 June, 1945, in which he stated Mr. Zinberg 
not only had shown an irresponsible attitude but he had done poor work 
in obstetrics. 


The Dean also brought to the attention of the Faculty Board that 
Dr. Virginie Palmer had reported Mr. Zinberg had neglected his duty on 
the cardiologic service. 


Further discussion brought out traits of character which indicated 
that Mr, Zinberg would not reflect credit upon the medical profession or 
the medical school should he be graduated, 


Put to a vote the motion was lost with Dr. Davis dissenting. 
Therefore Mr. Zinberg will not be permitted to reenter the medical school,

member of the steering committee, such nominations to be sent to the Dean, 

who was requested to notify the members so nominated and call them to an 

early meeting. The steering committee so constituted shall then select 

its own committee chairman. This committee will request the full 

cooperation of the Alumni Association of the School of Medicine, and if 

so desired, the cooperation of the other professional schools composing 

the Baltimore Division, in the campaign to be decided upon. The 

steering committee may add to its membership other members of the

Continuation of Postgraduate Committee: 


’ Dean Patterson reported that a subcommittee of the postgraduate 
committee had ascertained that the refresher course and other postgraduate 
courses could be given without interference with the instruction of medical 
students during the regular scholastic year, 


It was moved and seconded to continue the activities of the poste 
graduate committee, and the courses already proposed by them, and such other 
courses as may be approved from time to time by the Faculty Board, 


115 


_In the discussion of the motion, Dean Patterson stated that fees received 

for the review course (April 8, 1946 to June 8, 1946) had amounted to 

$2266, and that after all expenses had been met, there remained approximately 
a balance of $1800, The Dean further stated that the Comptroller of the 
University, Mr. Benton, stated that he would request the President to 

include funds for the conduct of the postgraduate course in the budget for 
the next fiscal year (July 1, 1946 - June 30, 1947). 


Dr. Bubert, Chairman of the Postgraduate Committee, announced 
that his committee had recommended that a moderate fee be paid to the 
lecturers taking part in the postgraduate courses as this required © 
additional duty beyond present assignments of those instructors. He further 
stated that even after such expenditures were made, there would be a very 
favorable balance each year, in his opinion, 


The motion to continue the activities of the postgraduate committee 
was put to a vote and carried, 


August H. VandenBosche: 


The request of Mr. A. H. VandenBosche, a former student in the 
Medical School, for reconsideration which had been postponed at the meeting 
of the Faculty Board May 20, 1946 because it was not clear whether he desired 
to be allowed to repeat the second year or to reenter as a first year student, 
was again presented by the Dean. The Dean read the letter from 
Mr. VandenBosche under date of June 1, in which he stated he desired to 
repeat the second year. 


To bring the case up for discussion, a motion was made by Dr. Shipley, 
and seconded by Dr. Davis, to allow Mr. VandenBosche to repeat the second year, 
The discussion brought out that Mr. VandenBosche had not only failed in medicine 

and neurology in the second year, but that his scholarship in general was very 
“poor. On vote, the motion was lost, no one voting in the affirmative.

Minutes of a Meeting of Members of the Faculty detailed 
to Compose a Steering Committee to elect a Chairman, to 
organize, and for other purposes. 


June 10, 1946 


The first meeting of the "Steering Committee" was held on 
Monday, June 10, 1946, at 4;00 P.M. in the Board Room of the University 
Hospital. The meeting had been called by Dean Rob't. U. Patterson who 
opened the proceedings with the following remarks (in substance): 


The Dean told of the formation of a Special Committee of 
Heads of Departments and Services whose function was to designate 
members from departments and services of the Medical School and Hospital 
to serve on the "Steering Committee". Today's meeting was the first of 
this group of 47 men selected by the Special Committee. The Dean went 
on to describe the functions of the Steering Committee. He stated the 
functions are to study, consider, and revise material available from’ 
the Dean's Office concerning the budget for the next biennium from 
the Medical School as well as similar information from the Administration 
and Staff of the University Hospital. In addition, the Steering Committee 
is to seek a meeting of a committee from their own membership, and request 
the active interest and support of the President and the Board of Regents 
of the University for better financial support of the Medical School, and 
its hospital, and then to outline and conduct a campaign to attain 
their objectives. Also to take such measures as they may believe to be 
necessary to interest the Governor, State Legislature, the Legislative 
Council, etc. to attain this end. They are to consider carefully, and 
decide whether or not to seek the cooperation of the other professional 
schools of the Baltimore Division of the University in a common effort. 
In any case the full cooperation of the Alumni Association is to be 
solicited, The Dean's remarks were a further explanation of his 
memorandum of June 6, 1946 concerning a "Steering Committee”. 


The Dean expressed his recognition of the difficulty of the 
problem ahead. He felt that the conduction of the campaign would require 
great tact, diplomacy, and care in order that proper procedures were 
adhered to. He stated that in the selection of a Chairman of the 
Committee, it would be well to elect a younger man who would have the 
energy, and enthusiasm to carry on all the necessary details. The 
Dean expressed great sympathy with the cause, and also expressed his 
regret that he would not be able to take part in the campaign since 
his resignation would take effect at the end of the current fiscal year. 


With these remarks, the Dean turned the meeting over to 
Dr. H. Boyd Wylie, Assistant Dean, for the purpose of the election 
of a Chairman, and to organize. The Dean retired from the meeting. 


Dr. Wylie asked for nominations for the position of Chairman 
of the Steering Committee. Dr. Harry C. Hull was nominated and 
seconded, There was then discussion to the effect that a temporary 
chairman should be first elected, so that more consideration could be 
given to the selection of the Chairman. This was agreed upon, and 
Dr. Hull was unanimously elected Temporary Chairman of the Conmittee. 


117 


The need for a Secretary for the Steering Committee was 
expressed, and Dr. Francis G, Dickey was nominated, seconded, and 
unanimously elected Temporary Secretary of the Committee, 


Dr. Wylie then retired from the chair and turned the meeting 
over to the Temporary Chairman, Dr, Hull, 


Dr. Hull then appointed a nominating committee for the position 
of Permanent Chairman. This committee was composed of the following: 


1. Dr. J. M. Hundley, Jr. 
2. Dr. Wm. S. Love, Jr, 

3. Dr. Walter D. Wise 

4, Dr. John C. Krantz, Jr, 
5. Dr. Wm. R. Amberson 


The Chair then heard discussion from the floor by Doctors Love 
and Bubert in which it was expressed that the nominating committee should 
retire immediately, and consider the names for Chairman, Secretary, and 
in addition select from the Committees five additional members who would 
serve as the Executive Committee with the officers of the Steering Committee 
ex officio. This was received favorably, and the nominating committee 
retired to so select, 


The Nominating Committee returned and gave the following 
names for permanent officership: 


Chairman; Dr. Harry C. Hull 
Secretary-Treasurer: Dr. Francis G. Dickey 
Executive Committee: 

1. Dr. H. M. Bubert 

2. Dr. John C. Krantz, Jr. 

5. Dr. Louis A. M. Krause 

4. Dr. Louis H. Douglass 

5. Dr. Maurice C. Pincoffs 


These names were seconded from the floor, and upon vote were 
unanimously elected to the designated positions, 


On motion by Dr. Wm. S. Love, Jr., it was resolved to have the 
Executive Committee meet in order to put into form, and to plan the objectives 
of the Steering Committee, and then to have another Committee meeting in 
the near future in order to conduct further business relative to the 
functions of the Committee. This was seconded and unanimously approved. 


At 4:50 P.M. the Committee adjourned.

Report of Committee on Retirement Age 


The report of the Committee on Retirement Age was read by the 

| Dean. This report is divided into two sections, one of which deals with 
retirement of the part-time faculty, the other with the retirement of the full 
time faculty. In relation to the first, the Committee recomended: That the 
Dean of the School of Medicine, withthe concurrence of the Faculty Board, 
address a letter to the President and Board of Regents of the University of 
Maryland requesting that: — 


(1) The obligatory retirement age for part-time teachers, both voluntary 
and salaried, in the School of Medicine be set at 70 years for the 
period 1 July 1946 to 1 July 1947, 


(2) The obligatory retirement age for this group of teachers be set at 
the age of 65 after 1 July 1947, with the exception that upon 
recommendation of the Dean of the School of Medicine, the President 
may reappoint annually an individual teacher over 65 until a suitable 


replacement has been found, or until the individual has reached 
the age of seventy, 


119 


| The recommendations of the Committee concerning the retirement of 
_ full time teachers are: That the Dean, with the concurrence of the Faculty 

| Board, address a statement to the President of the University and to the 

Board of Regents, expressing the advantages of a lower retirement age, and 
requesting that a committee containing representatives from each School of the 
University be appointed by the Regents to study the advisability of changing 
the retirment age of all full time University teaching personnel to 65, and 

to analyze the steps that would be necessary to achieve that result without 
financial detriment to present Faculty members, 


The Dean stated he would have a copy of this report sent to each 
member of the Faculty Board so they may be able to take considered action at 
a later meeting. 


Report of Steering Committee: 


Dean Patterson stated that he had called the meeting of the full 
faculty to acquaint them with the steps being taken to obtain adequate 
financial support of the School of Medicine and the University Hospital by 
the State of Maryland, Increased appropriations by the Legislature are 
absolutely essential if these institutions are to maintain and improve their 
honourable record.of service to the citizens of the State, The Dean further 
stated that only one other State gave a less financial proportion of support 
to the Medical School and Hospital of its State University. 


The Dean also brought to their attention that, of the many conditions 
existing in the medical school at that time which were subjected to criticism 
by the Committee appointed by the American Association of Medical Colleges and 
the Council on Education and Hospitals of the A.M.A. to survey medical schools 
in 1955, the meagreness of financial support of the medical school by the State, 
and the School's great dependence upon students' fees for its support, were 
almost the only adverse criticismswhich had not been corrected, That steps 
be taken to obtain better financial support, the Dean explained that in 
accordance with a resolution of the Faculty Board adopted on 20 May 1946, 
a meeting of a Committee of Heads of Departments was held on 31, May 1946, 
At this meeting it was decided that the heads of each department and professional 
service, and the sub-departments thereof, nominate a representative as a member 
of a Steering Committee, such nominations to be sent to the Dean, who was 
requested to notify the members so nominated and call them to an early organiza- 
tional meeting. The Dean stated that the first meeting of the Steering Committee 
was held on Monday, 10 June 1946 in the Board Room of the University Hospital. 
At this meeting the Dean stated that their functions would be: 


(1) To study, consider, and revise material available in the 
Dean's Office concerning the budget for the next biennium for 
the Medical School as well as the University Hospital. 


(2) To seek an early meeting of a Committee from their membership 
with the President and Board of Regents to request their active 
interest and support in obtaining better appropriations for the 
School of Medicine, and its Hospital, by the State. 


(3) To outline and conduct a campaign to meet those objectives. 


| 


(4) To take such measures as they may think necessary to interest 
the candidates for the Governorship, the State Legislature, and 
the Legislative Council. He felt that it was important that they 
also carefully consider and decide whether or not to seek the 
cooperation of the other professional schools of the Baltimore 
Division of the University in a common effort. In any case, they 
should solicit the full cooperation of the Alumni Association, 


The Dean further stated to the Steering Committee that 
they may add to its membership other members of the Faculty, and lay 
members who occupy important and influential positions in the State. He 
stated that the functions of the Steering Committee were stated in a 
memorandum from his office, dated June 6, 1946, 


Dean Patterson then asked Dr. Francis G. Dickey, Secretary 
of the Steering Committee, to read the minutes of their first meeting. 
These give the details of the organization of the Committee, and have | 
already been entered on pages 116 and 117 of the Minutes of the Faculty of q 
Medicine. 


Dean Patterson invited members of the Faculty who have ideas 
concerning what should or should not be done in carrying on the campaign 
for better financial support to communicate with Dr. Harry C. Hull, Chairman, | 
or Dr. Francis G. Dickey, Secretary of the Steering Committee. 
| 


Dr. J. Herbert Wilkerson suggested it might be wise for the 
various hospitals seeking State support to make a joint campaign for 
the appropriation of a lump sum by the Legislature for such support for 
the next biennium. Each hospital would have its specific allotment of 
this appropriation. Dr. Wilkerson also stated that Dr. Robinson, Dean 
of the School of Dentistry, had asked him to express the Dean's willingness 
to assist in the campaign for greater support of the professional schools 
and the University Hospital, 


Dr. C. R. Edwards stated that the Veterans' Administration and 
the Medical Societies of Kansas had entered into an agreement to use the 
facilities of the local civilian hospitals rather than build a Veterans' 
Hospital for the care of veterans of the World Wers. He suggested that the 
Steering Committee might give consideration to the possibility of such an 
arrangement being made with the Veterans’ Administration in Maryland, | 


Selection of Dean 


Dr. Amberson expressed the opinion that the Faculty should take . 


Some part in the selection of a new Dean. A Motion was made by Dr. Wise, duly , 
seconded, and amended to the effeot: 


That the Faculty Board of the School of Medicine authorize 
and request the Executive Committee of the Steering Committee to 
approach the President of the University with regard to the selection 
of a Dean of Medicine, and request that the Faculty Board be permitted 
to assist in canvassing the field of available candidates, and make 
nominations for the President's cmsideration,

Salary Increases Announced: 


Dr. Wylie announced that the Standard Salary Board had author- 
ized an upward adjustment by $400.00 of all salaries falling under its 
regulation, effective September 1, 1946, This adjustment is intended to 
absorb the $180.00 bonus previously authorized. 


It was announced that the school began with the total of 334 | 

students - Men 507, Women 27 - distributed as follows: Seniors 97, q 
Juniors 80, Sophomores 67, Freshmen 90, | 
4 q 


Revision of School Calendar: 


Dr. Wylie announced that the thirty-six week calendar starting | 
the first Tuesday in September disconcerted his office in preparing for the 
beginning of school, because of the unavailability of instructors who were 
on vacations, and the nearness of this starting period to vacations of 
other personnel in running the office. He suggested that the school revert 
to a thirty-three week year beginning on the third Tuesday in September 
and incorporating in the second semester one additional week for the . 
spreading out of final examinations. 


Following a free discussion, Dr. Krantz moved (seconded by 
Dr. Carr) that we accept Dr. Wylie's suggestion and go back to a thirty- 
three week year, effective in September 1947, : 


The motion was passed, but at the request of some members 


it was tabled for further consideration until the meeting of October 10, 
1946,

A letter from the Surgeon General was read concerning his personal ideas 
and endorsement of the plan with a statement to the effect that actual

possible. Dr. Pincoffs further continued with a report that the Committee 
favored the continued sponsorship of affiliated units. The Committee to 
consist of a skeleton organization to be composed only of chiefs of 
service and section chiefs. A detailed report follows: 


"Memorandum to: March 13, 1947 
Dr. H. Boyd Wylie 
Dean's Office 


At your request I acted as Chairman of the Committee to consider , 
Surgeon General Norman T. Kirk's letter to the School of December 10,\ 
1946. Members of the Committee in addition to myself were Doctors 
George H. Yeager, Lewis Gundry, Vernon Langluttig and Harry C. Hull. \ 


General Kirk requests recommendations from the school on certain topics \ 
concerning the formation of one or more “affiliated units" which would 
be "an integral part offhe post war military establishment," 


a - Would the University of Maryland “edical School consider it 
favorable to form such an affiliated unit? 
The Committee recommends that the answer be that the Medical 
School would consider it favorable to accept such an invitation. 


b - What comments are to be made concerning the "overall maintenance?" 


The Committee recommends that the School state that it advises 
that a director be nominated by the School and avproved by the Surgeon 
General whose duty it would be to recruit the key personnel for the unit 
or units and propose also candidates to the Office of the Surgeon General 
for commissions in their appropriate grades in the Medical Reserve Corps, 
earmarked to be assigned to the affiliated hospital unit. It is also 

recommended that after the period of recruitment is over that the School 
suggest to the Office of the Surgeon General a name of a Commanding Officer 


for the unit. 


It is recommended by the Committee that the advantage be 
pointed out to recruit only the key personnel for the Hospital (majors 
and superior ranks in the Medical Corps). 


136 


"These key positions should include the Chiefs of all Personnel and 
Chiefs of Services; in addition it would be considered advisable that 
certain men for certain positions filled by Administrative Officers be 
recruited - for example - Adjutant, Personnel Officer, Medical Supply 
Officer, Kegistrar, Mess Officer. The Chief Nurse should likewise be 


recruited. 


c - It is believed by the Committee that such a cadre 
of personnel if trained.could quickly be supplemented with officers 
in lower grades if the activation of the unit become eminent. 


d - What recommendations should be made concerning active 
and inactive training? 


It is the opinion of the Committee that the type of 
training typified by lectures, periods of active duty, correspondence 
courses, etc. is valueless for the professional officers of the unit. 
It is suggested that what the qualifications of the officers concerned 
warrant is for them to receive appointments as consultants in the Army | 
area in which they are situated and which should be utilized on a regular 
schedule to furnish consultation and educational service to such Army Z| 
hospitals as are located within reasonable distance of their parent 
school. It is felt that this would furnish the most desirable type of 
training for the officers concerned and would at the‘same time be of 7 
assistance to the Army's program of bettering the level of the professional 
work in its hospitals. On the other hand it is felt that Administrative 
Officers who are recruited should receive fo@gmal training for the duties 
towhich they are assigned. 


e - The Committee desires to recommend that the School 
in answering the Surgeon General's letter state that there is among the 
surgical faculty a favorable opinion regarding the organization of an 
evacuation hospital in addition to the General Hospital as a second 
affiliated unit to the University of Maryland. 


Sincerely yours, 


Maurice C. Pincoffs, M.D. 
Chairman " 


It is further recommended that an Evacuation Hospital be 
established in keeping with the desires and needs of the younger 
surgeons who might desire more primary surgery. It was moved by Dr. 
Douglass to accept the report and to forward a copy to the Surgeon 
General. This was passed. 


Mid-Year Réport Cards to Students: 


Concerning the proposal to send out mid-year report cards 
to students, Acting Dean Wylie reported that most Medical Schools now 
furnish a mid-year report. It was moved by Dr. Krause and seconded by 
Dr. Pincoffs that the University hereafter furnish a mid-year report to 
each student, 


Late Grades: 


Acting Dean Wylie then reported that one set of mid-year 
examination grades were still in the hands of the department heads 
and requested prompt transmittal to the Dean's office. 


Establishment of a Medical ROTC Group: 
ct ita oe aches Blaccocteals pcan abo) Sail 


Concerning a letter to the school from the Medical Officer, 
end Army, relating to the establishment of a Medical ROTC Group, it 
was decided to submit this problem for study to a committee. (Committee

eee ee Onn Vee i 


"At a meeting of the Memorial Committee held on Monday,

to you as the desires of this Committee concerning the erection and 
dedication of the memorial to the personnel of the University Hospital, 
Mercy Hospital, andthe University of Maryland School of Medicine who 
served in World War II. : 


1. The Committee suggests the purchase of a suitable granite corner 
stone type marker to be hollowed and to be appropriately inscribed 
externally. 


26 This marker is to be placed in a wall of the old Medical Building 
at a site to be determined. 


36 It is recommended that two parchment scrolls be purchased and 
appropriately inscribed with the names (without rank or other 
designation) of those concerned, listing separately those who died while 

in military service. 


4. One of ‘these scrolls is to be sealed in a copper cannister which 
is, in turn, to be sealed within the hollowed stone by molten lead 
at the time of the dedication, 


5. The second copy of the scroll is to be appropriately framed and 
displayed in a location to be determined. 


6. Appropriate ceremonies are to be arranged with the cooperation of 
the Dean and the Committee at a time to be determined. The actual 
laying of the stone and the ceremonies are to be photographed. 


6. The Committee is prepared to act immediately upon receipt of approval 


of the above report. 
For the Committee, 


John A. Wagner, Secretary " 


It was moved by Dr. Krause to design and to have cast in bronze 
a memorial plaque for the three members of the University Hospital, 
Mercy Hospital and Medical School staffs who died while in military service. 
‘This was passed. 


137 


138 


A discussion was then centered about the tabulation and 
reporting of the military records of the staff members of the University 
Hospital, Mercy Hospital and Medical School who participated in the 
recent war. The Memorial Committee was requested to revise the 
existing data sheéts now on file and to reduce the amount of material 
pertinent to these medical officers so that if a printed volume 
relative to the military. service of the Medical School and Hospital 
personnel were to be considered the material necessary would then be 
in consistent and good form. 


Application for Reinstatement by Miss Nell Starkey: 
Concerning an application for reinstatement submitted by Miss 
Nell Starkey, discussion was concluded by a motion by Dr. Brantigan 


and was seconded by Dr. Lutz that Miss Starkey not be allowed to

stated that he had investigated this and found that it was a very expensive 
procedure. 
Dr. Edgar Friedenwald suggested the possibility of asking 
the Department of Animal Husbandry at College Park to cooperate. The consensus 
of the meeting was that the Dean should explore this possibility.

Post Graduate Instruction Of Army Medical Officers: 
SA aot scenes Da ede ANcantchaee el dacs Len ptace e SE 


The Acting Dean asked Dr. Bubert if the Post Graduate 
Committee had a report to present on the education of Army Medical 
Officers. Dr. Bubert stated that it was not clear to him what the Army 
desired. He believed that their aims and aspirations were beyond the scope 
of the Post Graduate Committee at present. It was stressed that the Army ~~ 
program was not well thought out, and that we could not offer much in the — 
way of graduate instruction to Army Officers at the present time. 


Constitution and By-Laws of Faculty: 


The Acting Dean asked whether or not the Faculty should 
formulate a Constitution and By-Laws. He stated that he had been unable 
to find such documents if they were available. It was moved by Dr. Uhlen- 
huth and seconded by Dr. Shipley that the Dean appoint a committee to draft — 
a Constitution and By-Laws. The motion was duly carried. el

The plan provides that the City Health Department make an annual payment of 
$7.00 for each client enrolled. Overloading of the centers is to be strictly ( 
avoided. Dr. Wylie reported, also, that Dr. Ames requested that he be notified — 
not later than December 8, 1947 whether or not the University Hospital would 
consider entering the plan. ; 

Dr. Pincoffs reviewed the overall program, and offered the following

to be especially beneficial to the rural practitioners and more indirectly 

to the University. Dr. Bubert reported that the talks were to be recorded, 
edited and disseminated for further use. The report was accepted with enthusiasm.

of The Surgeon General R. W. Bliss, dealing with the affiliation program 
reported to the Faculty Board December 12, 19)6, a study of which wes made 
and reported on by Dr. Pincoffs' coumittee on March 13, 19)7. 

It is now proposed by General Bliss that a representative of 
the Surgeon General's office come to Baltimore and explain the program. 
Following lengthy discussion, it was moved by Drs. Pincoffs and Spencer that . 
"Dr. Wylie appoint a committee to arrange for a meeting with the representative 
of the Surgeon General in Baltimore to discuss the plan now in prospect." 
The motion passed.

Dr. Wylie presented communications from the Headquarters of 
the Second Army, setting forth the 13 stipulations governing the establishment 
of a Medical R.O.T.C. Unit. Dr. Pincoffs elaborated upon the proposed plan, 
and the necessities dictating the procedure. Following the discussion, it 
was voted, on motion by Drs. Bubert and Pincoffs "that a small standing committee 
be appointed by the Dean to keep the Faculty conversant with the subject." 


Fellowships Offered by U.S.P.H. Service: 


Dr. Wylie presmted a communication in the form of a General 

Information folder from the U.S.P.H. outlining four (l) types of Fellowship 
Awards and Stipends being currently offered. These awards begin at the Bachelor 
level with $1200. per year without dependents and $1600. per year with dependents, 
through the master level at $1600. and $2000. respectively, to the doctorate 
level at $3000. and $3600. respectively, with a $300. increase at the 
| doctorate level for each year the fellow is reappointed, in the latter category. 

Special emphasis is given the fellowship at the Bachelor level because it is 
adaptable to the plan for medical students who wish to interrupt their medical 
_ training with a year or two of research. Blanks are held in the Dean's office 
for distribution.

Current Criticism of Fourth-Year Curricular Changes: 


Dr. Wylie reported that criticisms have been received from 
department heads who teach senior students resulting from the absence from 
their classes and clinics of students currently assigned to Medicine. 

Dr. Pincoffs explained that since September 196 he has been withholding 
the medical group in the fourth-year section from a number of lectures 
and clinics not related to medicine, and expressed surprise that any criticisms - 
of this procedure have only recently been received. Dr. Pincoffs 
pointed out that the privilege to engage in this procedure was agreed upon 
at the latest meeting of the Curriculum Committee in the summer of 196. 
In order to clarify the schedule of the fourth year, it was 
voted to refer the matter to the Curriculum Committee for study and recommendati

Minutes: 


The minutes of the previous regular meeting, November 20, 1947, were 
read and approved. 


Mid-Year Examination Schedule Announced: 


Dr. Wylie submitted a schedule for mid-year examinations and announced 
Jamary 26, 1948 as the opening date of the second semester. 


Report of the Post-Graduate Sub-Committee on Graduate Training and Hospital 
Affiliation. 


Dr. Wylie opened the subject of a formal post-graduate program of 
training of interns and residents in the University Hospital by asking depart- 
ment heads and subheads to discuss this proposal and to comment on the 
present plans to affiliate with county hospitals in a training program. The 
county hospitals specifically mentioned in the proposed plan are at Salisbury, 
Hagerstown, Cumberland and Easton. lhe discussion which followed revolved 
around the desirability of the latter plan as it relates to the doctor and to 
the hospital. Dean Wylie suggested that as a State University we should stand 
ready to serve the state on a broad scale and asked that we act in support of 
the proposed plan or reject it. It was then suggested that our help may not 
be wanted, and that the Post Graduate Committee should study the plan and if 
found feasible should work out and recommend a program. 


Dr. Shipley reported that the American Board of Surgery thinks we should 
help out the county hospitals and that such a plan is working out satisfac- 
torily in Massachusetts. On the strength of this suggestion and the 
suggestions of the American Board of Surgery, Dr. Shipley reported he had 
made tentative arrangements to put on an extra assistant resident who will 
serve in, but not live in, the University Hospital, and will rotate some of 
his time in Salisbury. Other questions which came up involving appointments 
_ and the qualifications of those appointed seemed to vanish in the statement 


—— rae i 


of Dr. Wylie who gave assurance that we shall continue to control the appoint- 
ment of interns and residents in the usual manner. 


The question was referred to the Post Graduate Subcommittee for further 
study and recommendations. 


Parking Problems Reviewed: 


Dr. Wylie opened up again the whole question of parking on the University 
parking lots, and warned that unless there was some real cooperation we would 
likely lose the present attendant and thus the parking problem would become 
intolerable. Dr. Wylie asked Mr. William R. Lepson, the parking lot 
attendant, to attend this meeting of the Faculty Board and present the facts. 
Mr. Lepson reported congestion of the Law School lot by cars which are a 
currently crowded off the hospital lot by intruders, and that some people 
with cards are not paying and others without cards refuse to pay but park 
nevertheless. : 


It was decided to continue the effort to operate the present system, 
using proper checks upon unauthorized use of the lots, and by instituting a 
new system of fee collection for the hospital personnel who are authorized ls: 
use the parking space. 


The meeting adjourned at 5:30 P. M.

Regulations Governing Yismissal of Students at the “nd of the First Semester, 
ee SE tents at the “na of the first cemester, 


Freshman Year, Revised: 


Dr. Wylie reported som difficulties growing out of the regulation we 


169° 


now follow in dismissing veterans, especially who are doing failing work, 

at the end of. the first semester of the freshman year. This results because 
at the end of the first semester Gross Anatomy has not Seen completed and 
thus the student has not actually failed the complete course or the 
requisite number of subjects to warrant dismissal. Following some dis- 
cussion, it was voted on motion by Dr. Pincoffs and Uhlenhuth "That any 
student who fails or is failing in two major subjects at the end of the 
first semester of the freshman year, whether the course is complete or 
incomplete, may be dropped from the rolls of the School."' This new regula- 
tion is not intended to supplant the current rule which requires removal 
from the rolls of any student who has failed in two completed major courses.

MINUTES OF THE FACULTY BOARD OF THE MEDICAL SCHOOL — 
of the 
UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND — 3 


June 25, 198 


A meeting of the Faculty Board was held on Friday, June 25, 198, at 
3:10 P.M. in the Faculty Room of the Medical School. Dean Wylie presided. 


Present were: Drs. Wylie, Amberson, Bagley, Brantigan, Clarke, Coblentz, 
Monte Edwards, Friedenwald, Hachtel, Harne, Iwomoto, Joslin, 
Krahl, Krantz, lutz, Sacks, Shipley, Spencer and Ullrich. 


Minutes Approved: 
The minutes of the previous meeting (June 18) were read and approved. 
Final Action on Advancement Reports: 


Dr. Wylie commented on the action taken by the Committees on Advance- 
ment of Students and the subséquent adoption of these committee reports by 
the Faculty Board. The Dean expressed the belief that the members of the 
Committees on Advancement who know the students best should agree in 
committee upon the proper recommendation to make to the faculty in each 
case and that once a decision is made by the faculty .it should be adhered toe 
Situations now seem to develop out of a custom of some faculty members to 
give counsel to encumbered students, leading them to believe that his or her 
case was inadequately considered. This raises the student's hopes that more 
favorable action may be given upon reconsideration. This procedure is 
embarrassing to all concerned. Dean Wylie cited specifically the recent case 
of Mr. Bowen who reported to the Dean that one member of the faculty expressed 
willingness to propose reconsideration of his case after the faculty had 
voted unanimously to drop him. However, when the cases of all dropped 
students were reopened at the Faculty Board meeting on June 25th, the pro- | 
ponent in the case was absent and thus no change in status for any dropped 
student was voted or proposed. 


West Baltimore General Hospital Affiliation Proposed: 


The West Baltimore General Hospital report on affiliation with the 
University was discussed at length. Upon motion by Drs. Shipley and 
Brantigan, it was voted "To approve in principle the offer of affiliation 
of the West Baltimore General Hospital with the Medical School, the details 
to be worked out in conferences and discussions. Pending final action, the 
house staff of the West Baltimore General Hospital are welcome to attend 
clinics and postgraduate courses and conferences at the University Hospital , 
and Medical School. fs 


Dean Wylie Expressed Satisfaction in the Action of the Faculty Board to 
Affiliate with Qualified Hospitals: 


Dean Wylie eypreseed satisfaction that first steps were taken to affiliate 
with qualified hospitals and expressed the hope that we will now take the lead 


in helping hospitals in the State to improve their training programs. 


Department of “Physiology Granted One Additional Lecture Period: 


Dr. Amberson, head of the Department of Physiology, explained that the 
number of lectures in physiology given in the Freshman year so reduced the 
total number of lecture hours in Physiology that he found himself crowded 
in the second year trying to cover the subject material with the allotted 
time. On motion by Drs. Uhlenhuth and Krantz, it was voted "To grant Dr. 
Amberson the lecture period from 8:30 to 9:30 A. M. on Friday until changed 
by action of the Faculty Board." 


Neuro-Physiology Grades Discussed: 


The question of including Neuro~Physiology grades in Freshman reports 
was discussed. On motion by Drs. Spencer and Amberson, it was voted "To 
hold this discussion in abeyance until the new head of Histology and Neuro- 
Anatomy is appointed." 


Post Graduate Committee Reports: 


Dr. Brantigan discussed at length the Report of the Sub-Committee of 
the Post Graduate Committee on House Officer Training Program. It was 
voted on motion by Drs. Shipley and Krantz "That the faculty accept the 
plan proposed in the report in principle and instruct the subcommittee to 
contact the basic hospitals enumerated in the report (i.e. University, 
Mercy, Baltimore City and Kernana) to find out their reactions." 


Professors Emeriti Elected: 

The names of Dr. Compton Riely and Dr. Carl L. Davis were presented to 
the Faculty Board for consideration as candidates for professorships 
Emeriti in Orthopoedic Surgery and Anatomy respectively. On motion by Drs. 
Spencer and Friedenwald the candidates were unanimously recommended.

President Byrd Outlines Administrative Levels, Announces Several Appoint- 
ments and Appointment Procedures, and Presents Immediate Plans for the 


University of Maryland School of Medicine and Hospital. 


President Byrd addressed the Special Meeting of the Faculty Board at 
which time he enumerated three levels of administrative procedure to be in 
force at the Medical School and Hospital. The first level is to be a 
Director of Medical Education and Research, to which position Dr. Maurice 
C, Pincoffs was named for one year as Director and Special Assistant to 
the President. The second level of administration in the new set up will 
be the Dean of the Medical School to which position Dr. H. Boyd Wylie has 
been named. The third is at the level of department heads. President 
Byrd clearly stated that, contrary to rumor, this administrative level has 
always been recognized and henceforth it shall be understood that appoint- 
ments within departments are wholly department business, but stated that 
prudence dictates that such appointments be recommended only after consul- 
tation with the Dean of the Medical School and Director of Education.and 
Research. 


Dr. Louis H. Douglass Named Full Time Professor of Obstetrics. 


The President announced the appointment of Dr. Louis H. Douglass, 
Professor and Head of the Department of Obstetrics, the first full-time 
appointment in the Medical School to a clinical chair. 


Dr. T. Nelson Carey Named Chairman of the Department of Medicine. 


The President announced that Dr. T. Nelson Carey would become Yr, 
Pincoffs' successor on a temporary basis and would become Chairman of the 


Department of Medicine. 


Post Graduate Work Cited. 


The President referred to the excellent work being done by Dr. Bubert's — 
Committee and expressed the opinion that the demands for post graduate work. 
will continue to increase. 


Clinical Research and How Best to Approach It. 


President Byrd related the handicaps under which clinical research has 
survived and suggested that all problems of a similar nature can be solved 
by answering the question, "What shall be the position of the University 
Hospital and Medical School'in the health program of the state?" 


He pointed out that very soon now we shall have the income from the 
Bressler Fund which will provide between $50,000 and $60,000 per year for 
research. 


Dr. Pincoffs Speaks to the Faculty as Director of Medical Research and 


Education and as Special Assistant to the President. 


Dr. Pincoffs evaluated his position as being one with numerous and a 
gigantic tasks. He expressed his willingness to attempt it, knowing that it’ 
would require orderly approach and the establishment of priority levels for 
things undertaken. ; 


Questions Asked. 


President Byrd was asked questions relative to the part the Alumi 
might play in the furthering of the plans for the University. To this, the 
essential answer was that plans must be made in cooperation with everyone 
who knows the state's needs. Specifically, as an example, reference was 
made to the new Psychiatric Hospital to be built. - How large is large enough? 
What basis shall decide whether the hospital should be 100 or 200 beds? 
These and similar points can be answered best by obtaining first the fullest 
information on a specific problem.

accomplishments, character and personality traits of some of our graduates 
during internships and he explained that if we are to recognize deficiencies 
as well as superior qualifications, it will, be, desirable to have instructors © 
submit their impressions of each student , from time, to time,in order that a

of various groups of students représenting the low, intermediate and top yi 
averages be submitted to the process outlined in the committee's report on 
"Grades and the Grading of Medical Students" to see if we do or do not 5 
already have a system for determining thése actions.

grades so that a course with a few contact hours would not weigh equally 
with a course having many contact hours. To obviate this, the dean 
asked that the medical and surgical specialties in the junior and senior 
years each be given a single grade value. Thus there would be one grade 
for medicine and another grade for the medical specialties. The same 
system would apply to surgery and the surgical specialties.

privileged to invite to sit with them any departmental director 
or member, not represented in the Committee, whose department

Publications Committee Report Accepted: 


The question of medical school publications; reprints of published 
articles and the binding of approximately two hundred volumes of collected 
current reprints was discussed at length. The Publications Committee, 
Dr. Carr, Chairman, recommended the discontinuation of the present policy | 
of collecting 200 reprints of each article published and the binding of ‘Zi 
them into as many volumes for distribution to authors and libraries. The . 
alternative recommended being the publication of a brochure of the biblio- 
graphy of research work published each year by members of the faculty. Another 
Suggestion was that a bulletin be prepared explaining to research workers q 
and teachers the procedure to be followed in setting up a research projaee 
and the publication of work completed or in progress.

On motion by Drs. Krantz and D. C. Smith it was voted, "That the Publica- 
tions Committee compile a bibliography of articles published at the medical

available for general distribution, and that five reprints of each article 
published from the medical school be sent by the author to the Dean's office." 


SELLING OF BOOKS, LABORATORY MANUALS, OUTLINES AND LECTURE NOTES BY DEPARTMENTS 
TO BE DISCONTINUED: 


Dean Wylie announced a decision by the Administrative Board of the University 
restricting the sale by departments of books, manuals, outlines and lecture 
notes. Henceforth, this function will be performed by authorized book stores 
by mutual arrangements. 


TEACHERS' EVALUATION OF STUDENT PROGRESS AND QUALIFICATIONS TO BE SENT PERIODICALLY 
TO THE DEAN: 


Dean Wylie reported a lack of essential information about Students, and 
asked faculty cooperation in supplying these pertinent data upon which student 
recommendations can be based. The suggestion of a prepared form issued by the 
Dean's office was well received and the Dean agreed to supply teachers with a 
standard form, upon which periodic reports can be made.

Dean Wylie reported that a Committee headed by Dr. Krantz make a report 
relative to the allocation and management of the Frank C. Bressler Reserve 
Fund and recommend a form of application to be used in securing grants from 
the fund.

of the Endowment Fund he did not follow in detail the recommendations of the 
committee for the reason that stipulations in Dr. Bressler's will, together 
with regulations governing the disbursement of University funds had to be 
adhered to. The Dean's recommendations to the Trustees of the Endowment 
Fund of the University of Maryland, May 2h, 1950 are found unabridged in 
the minutes of the Advisory Committee, June 2, 1950. It was voted on motion 
by Drs. Krantz and Bradley, "That applications for the Frank C. Bressler 
Reserve Fund be reviewed on June 15th, October 15th, and January 15th, and 
that applications to be considered on these dates be filed with the Dean at 
least 30 days prior to the date upon which action is to be taken,'

petitioned the Medical Faculty for permission to register for and repeat 
the course in Biological Chemistry along with the incoming Freshman Class 
during the second semester of the 1950-51 sessions. Consideration was given 
the facts that Mr. Custer acquired a failure in Biological Chemistry, one 
grade of D and two grades of C in other completed courses placing him in next 
to last place in his class. In his favor, however, were mentioned his excellent 
spirit of cooperation, the extra duties he performed during tthe year and his 
acceptable personality, etc. On motion by Drs. Uhlenhuth and Dale Smith, 
it was voted, "That in lieu of Mr. Custer's request to repeat Biological 
Chemistry at the University of Maryland as requested, that he be permitted 
to take a summer course in Biological Chemistry elsewhere at an approved 
Medical School and upon the successful completion of this course he present 
himself to the Department of Biological Chemistry of this school for re- 
examination at the scheduled time.tt The action was unanimous. 


Mr. Burke Eldridge Eakle, Sophomore Medical Student, Dropped: 


Dean Wylie presented the case of Mr. Burke Eldridge Eakle, sophomore 

' medical student who was recommended by the Second Year Advancement Committee

the Junior Advancement Committee be approved and that Mr. McFadden be re- 
examined in the subjects failed. If upon re-examinations he passes with an 
average grade of C or better, he will be advanced with his class. If he 


the year and upon failure of one or more re-examinations he will be dropped. 
The Dean was authorized to notify Mr. McFadden of the action dealing only 
with his eligibility for re-examination. : 


The remainder of this motion expresses the Paculty feeling at this time, 
concerning Mr. EH. B. McFadden's status. i 


Smoking in Teaching Areas to be Stopped: 


Dean Wylie referred to the criticism made by the Student Council 
with regard to the vitiation of the air in lecture halls, laboratories, 
and conference rooms due to smoking and poor ventilation. No action was 
taken but it was strongly suggested that smoking should not be permitted 
in teaching areas, except by permission as is the case in the Gross Anatomy 
Laboratory. 


Mr. Benton's Letter Re The Purchase of Books for Department Libraries Read: 


Dean Wylie read a letter from Mr. C. L. Benton, Comptroller, setting / 
forth a new procedure to be followed in the purchasing of books for Department 
Libraries. Essentially this procedure involved sending department requisitions , 
for books to the Librarian instead of to Mr. Tucker. The Librarian purportedly — 
would purchase the books, approve the invoices, catalogue the books and deliver 
them to the department. Following some discussion, a motion by Drs. Hachtel 
and Uhlenhuth was passed, "That the suggestion of Mr. Benton be rejected." 


Short Course in Library Science Adapted to the Needs of Freshman Medical | 
Students Suggested by the Dean: | | 


Dean Wylie referred to the need for Freshman students to be conversant 
with library methods and suggested that time for a short course was available in 
the second semester of the Freshman year. Following some discussion it was | | 
suggested that a proposal be worked out with the library for further consideratin 


;| 


New Student Record Card in Preparation: 


and asked for suggestions relative to the Faculty's wishes concerning the 
inclusion of minor subjects under major departments and the addition of 

short and incomplete courses in the pre-clinical category. It was suggested | 
that all courses should be listed on the student record card in which examina= | 
tions are given to determine student standing in the class. |

Reconsideration of Previous Action of the Adviso Committee with Reference 
to Students Attending Classes on Saturday: 


Dean Wylie explained that the Advisory Committee of the Faculty was 
called together to reconsider action previously taken (January 15, 1951) re- 
quiring students to attend classes on Saturday. 


The question of whether or not the schedules of the Medical School 
could be adjusted to a five-day-week instead of to a five-and-one-half day 
week was discussed. It was pointed out that in order to have a five-day-week 
the present method of spreading out the work, thus relieving stress and in- 
creasing student and teacher efficiency would have to be sacrificed, and a 
concentration of work instituted again which would be detrimental to students 
efficiency and to the curriculum It was felt also that any effort to retain 
the present five-and-one-half-day schedules, and to excuse students from the 
Saturday classes might jeopardize our school rating and place an unwarranted, 
if not an impossible burden upon the Dean in the matter of certification and 
recommendation of students. Finally, it was pointed out that adequate training 
of our students -has always been the main objective of the Faculty, and to this 
end, through the years, the present system of schedules has been set up. It 
was felt that to give students adequate training and make them eligible for 
the certification and recommendations which they must have, the full course 
of training as prescribed should be completed as scheduled. It was further 
pointed out that in case of total mobilization, acceleration or the addition 
of new courses, there would be of necessity further encrochment upon free 
periods and an expansion of the Saturday schedule. 


Following this discussion, it was voted unanimously on motions by 
Dr. Pincoffs and Bradley: 


"That the Medical Faculty convinced that it is to the best interests 
of medical students, and compatible with adequate instruction in essential 
subjects, that the Medical Courses occupy a five~and-one=half day week. 


Having carefully considered, also, whether in individual cases 
omission of the scheduled classes on Saturday could be permitted, it was 
decided in the negative. 


We, therefore, strongly recommend to the Dean that no individual who 
is unable to attend classes on Saturday be admitted to the Medical School."

INTERIM ACTION 


As a result of the meeting on February 5, 1951, the Dean sent 
the following letter to Governor McKeldin. Furthermore, the 


Dean visited the Governor and explained the reaction of the 
faculty. 


Dear Governor McKeldin: 


Subject: The decision of the Faculty of the — 
School of Medicine, University of 
Maryland on an adequate medical 
school curriculum which upholds 
the standards of medical education. 


"The Advisory Committee of the Medical Faculty, consisting of the heads 
of all major departments, including the Dean and the Assistant to the Dean, met 
to consider the requirements of an adequate medical school curriculum. 


It was voted unanimously that the following resolution represents the 
considered opinion of the Advisory Comnittee of the Faculty: 


"The Medical Faculty is convinced it is to the best 
interests of medical students, and necessary for adequate 
instruction in essential subjects, that the Medical 
School courses occupy a five and one-half day week. _ 
The Faculty carefully considered whether in individual 
cases omission of the scheduled classes on Saturday 
could be permitted; this was decided in the negative. 

The Faculty, therefore, strongly recommends to the Dean 
that no individual who is unable to attend classes on 
Saturday be admitted to the Medical School", 


Some of the problems which came under discussion are listed herewith: 


1. The question of whether or not the schedules of the Medical School 
could be adjusted to a five-day week instead of a five and one-half day week was 
thoroughly discussed. It was concluded that to reduce the schedules to a five- 
day week would entail such crowding of each day's work as to diminish both 
student and teacher efficiency. 


2. The Dean distributed to the Advisory Committee an analysis of the 
published curriculum showing that Saturday classes total 301 hours. He called 
attention to the fact that should students be excused from aaa Seep even 
though they could attend Saturday clinics, they would lose ours of lectures 
Pe acaing ee. complete courses, during eee Further, he showed ios ne 
published in the Medical School Catalogue of September, 1950, on page 52, Rule 
No. 6 which reads, "All students are required to attend 85 per cent of scheduled 
classesSeeee''s He indicated that to excuse students from Saturday classes would 
not only abrogate the published attendance regulations, which govern all students, 
but because of the incomplete instruction not in keeping with our published 
curriculum, might jeopardize our school's rating in the eyes of accrediting 
-agenciese Furthermore, he indicated that the loss of this instruction would pre- 
vent him from certifying to State Boards and the Armed Services that the students 
involved had engaged in a complete course of instruction. 


236 B 


3. Again it was indicated that adequate training of our students 
has always been the main objective of the Faculty and thus through the years, 
with an eye to improvement, the present system of schedules has been set upe 
It is felt that the present five and one-half day schedule gives students 
adequate training and makes them eligible for the required certification to 
State Boards and the Armed Services, and for recommendation to hospitals. 


he It was further emphasized that in case of total mobilization 
and acceleration, it is clear that medical schools will be required to 
integrate into the existing curriculum new courses essential for national 
welfare and security, for example: Studies of atomic energy, radiation 
sickness and protection, blast injury, bacteriological and chemical warfare, 
the handling’of mass casualties and other aspects of civilian defense, special 
problems in epidemiology, industrial medicine and hygiene, rehabilitation and 
utilization of man power, military medicine, tropical medicine and needed 
military procedures. Time for such required courses can be found on Saturdays. 
only. ; 


5. At present, a large number of students are being deferred by 
use of Selective Service System Form Noe 103 under Memorandum No. 7. It is 
mandatory upon the Dean, when filing these forms, to certify that the 
student whose deferment is requested will attend a full-time schedule in the 
School of Medicine. Should students be admitted with the privilege to remain 
away on Saturdays, the Dean could not make this certification without mis- 


representation." ° . 


*"P.S. I have enclosed an analysis of the published 
curriculum showing that Saturday classes total 
301 clock hours."

of personnel, and requested earlier notice, whenever possible, to get out 
work. 


Dr. Douglass Requests Teaching Time for Seniors at B.C.H.: 


Dr. Douglass requested one week of time for obstetrics at Balti- 
more City Hospitals for seniors. This would compensate for the loss in 
training sustained through limitations imposed upon obstetrics at the 
University Hospital. On motion by Dr. Krantz and Dr. Pincoffs, it was 
voted "That the question of allocation of time for Dr. Dovglass be referred 
to a committee to be appointed by the Dean".

Dr. Amberson offered the following motion for consideration, which 
was seconded by Dr. Edwards, "That a committee of five be appointed to study 
our present policy concerning staff ranks, salaries and schedules of advance- 
ment, and to recommend a regular procedure to-apply to all departments". The 
motion passede @
